How this generator works

The Wohnungsgeberbestätigung is the landlord confirmation form required under §19 BMG (Bundesmeldegesetz) for every German address registration (Anmeldung). Without it, signed by your landlord, the Bürgeramt will turn you away and you lose your appointment slot.

There is no single federal template, each city publishes its own PDF. This generator fills the official version published by the Landeshauptstadt München, which contains every field §19 Abs. 3 BMG requires and is accepted nationwide. Government forms like this one carry no copyright (§5 UrhG, amtliches Werk), so reproducing and filling it is fully legal. If your own city publishes a different PDF, that works too, the content requirements are identical.

What happens when you click "Generate PDF"

  • Nothing is sent to a server. The PDF is filled entirely in your browser, using the details you typed, and downloads straight to your device.
  • The output is the real official form, not a paraphrase, filled in with your landlord's and your details in the exact fields the Bürgeramt expects.
  • Print it, and have your landlord sign it before your appointment. A signature is the one thing this tool cannot do for you.

Common mistakes that get this document rejected

  • Wrong date format. Germany uses DD.MM.YYYY, not MM/DD/YYYY. This generator formats the date for you automatically.
  • Missing owner details. Only fill in the owner field if your landlord is not the property owner (for example, a managing agent); otherwise leave it blank.
  • More than 7 people moving in. The official form has 7 name rows. If your household is larger, use a Beiblatt (supplementary sheet) from your city's Bürgeramt.
  • Unsigned copies. A printed but unsigned confirmation is not valid. The landlord (or property owner, if self-occupied) must sign by hand.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the official Wohnungsgeberbestätigung form?
Yes. This generator fills the official PDF published by the Landeshauptstadt München, which contains every field required by §19 Abs. 3 BMG. Government forms carry no copyright under §5 UrhG, so reproducing and filling this exact document is legal. Some cities publish their own version of the same form; either is accepted, since the legal content requirements are identical everywhere in Germany.
Is my data safe when I use this tool?
Yes. Nothing you type, names, addresses, or dates, is ever sent to a server. The PDF is generated entirely inside your browser and downloads straight to your device. GermanyDesk never sees or stores this information.
What if my landlord is not the property owner?
Fill in the "owner" field only in that case, for example when a managing agent or subletting tenant is your landlord but someone else owns the property. If your landlord is also the owner, leave that field blank.
What if more than 7 people are moving into the same address?
The official form has 7 name rows. If your household is larger, ask your local Bürgeramt for a Beiblatt (supplementary sheet), or check whether your city's own version of the form provides more rows.
What happens if my landlord refuses to sign?
Refusing, or providing it too late, is an Ordnungswidrigkeit under §54 BMG and can carry a fine of up to €1,000. Remind your landlord this is a legal obligation, not a favour. See the [Anmeldung Checklist](/tools/anmeldung) for the full registration process.
Can I use this instead of my city's own PDF form?
Yes. There is no single federal template, every city publishes its own PDF, but all of them must contain the same information required by §19 Abs. 3 BMG. This generator's output is accepted nationwide; using your own city's version instead is equally valid.
