Family & Pets

Moving with a dog: the dog travels in your own car, not the lorry; update the dog register and dog tax, liability insurance, EU pet passport and calm first days.

Moving with a baby: register within two weeks, new address to the Familienkasse and parental allowance office, apply early for a Kita voucher, dismantle the nursery last.

Moving with children: explain early, let them pack their own boxes, arrange childcare on moving day, set up the child's room first and sort out nursery and school in time.
