Having a baby is an exciting time in the life of a young family.  If your child is born in Germany, then there are a number of steps to keep in mind to ensure proper documentation and for the application of a passport.

The Registry Office (Standesamt) in Landstuhl is responsible for documenting births and issuing German and international birth certificates for babies born in Landstuhl.

Documents can be sent beforehand per email standesamt@landstuhl.de, stating your telephone number and the number of desired birth certificates, and to arrange an appointment.

You can receive German and/or international certificates and if the child is born in the German hospital, you will require a copy of the birth register in order to apply for a passport for the child.
