I’ll be arriving next month and need a checklist.
What steps should I take to settle into Lübeck after moving?
1 Answer
Upon arrival, register your residence at the local registration office within two weeks. Open a local bank account to manage utilities and rent payments, and obtain a German phone number. Arrange for a health insurance provider and register with the local health department. For utilities, contact the city’s energy and water companies to set up services. Finally, familiarize yourself with the city’s public transport card system and explore neighbourhood amenities such as supermarkets, pharmacies, and community centres.
A starting point only — it may be incomplete or out of date. Check official sources for anything important, and add your own answer if you know Lübeck.
