An independent prototype, not an official government website

Hallo, Deutschland

Whatever you need from the German state, just ask.

Example 1 of 11: How do I register my new address after moving?

AskGermany imagines a state you can simply ask, with answers only from official sources. Free for everyone, never any ads, and private by design.

131 official websites. One question.

Today you need to know whether the federal government, your state or your city is responsible. AskGermany asks all of them at once, so you don’t have to.

See how it works

Private by default.

No account, no tracking, no stored conversations. Personal details are removed before anything is searched.

Read the privacy policy

Clear answers. Official sources.

Every fact links to the government page it came from, from federal law to your city’s Bürgeramt.

Learn about sources

No app. No login. No queue.

Open AskGermany in any browser, in any language, at any hour. This Amt never closes.

From answers to done.

Answering questions is only the beginning. Here’s where a single front door to the German state could go.

  1. Live in this prototype

    Clear answers

    Ask anything about German public services and get a plain-language answer, with every fact linked to its official source.

  2. Concept

    Done, not just answered

    Book the Bürgeramt appointment, fill in the form and send it to the right office, without leaving the conversation.

  3. Concept

    Tell the state once

    Move house once, and every office that needs your new address knows. That’s the once-only principle German administration is working towards.
