Anmeldung, Formular, Frist

After a move in Germany you usually have to register your new address within two weeks: that’s die Anmeldung. On forms and in letters you’ll meet:

• die Frist, -en — the deadline: die Frist einhalten (to meet it), die Frist verpassen (to miss it)
• ausfüllen — to fill in; unterschreiben — to sign
• der Termin, -e — the appointment, which in many cities you book online first

The confirmation you get is the Meldebescheinigung.
