information on Brexit in English

Hello,

The United Kingdom has left the European Union with a withdrawal agreement on 31 January
2020 (so-called Brexit). Currently, a transitional period applies until 31 December 2020, during
which freedom of movement under EU law is still applicable to UK nationals. This legal status
changes on 1 January 2021.

We want to keep the administrative procedure as comfortable as possible. This letter provides
you with the necessary information about the next steps.

Registration of UK nationals with the Munich Foreigners Office

According to the withdrawal agreement, you preserve your right of residence, if you are living in
Germany under EU freedom of movement on 31 December 2020 and continue to live in Ger-
many after 1 January 2021. As proof of your right deriving from the withdrawal agreement you
need a residence document (Aufenthaltsdokument-GB). To obtain the new residence document
you need to register your residence by 30 June 2021 at the Foreigners Office (see section 16
sub—section 2 sentence 2 Freedom of Movement Act/EU).

Attached to this letter, you receive our form for residence registration. Please return the duly
completed and signed by hand form via e—mail as a PDF file to brexit.kvr@muenchen.de or via
post by 30 June 2021. Please attach a copy of your passport and, if applicable, the passports
belonging to any family members living with you, who are third country nationals. The subject
line of your registration e—mail needs to be formulated as follows:

A.'{ ‘eh‘?;/,";;h‘}’-‘.5 ;,"51' ;“,/"~"."‘;W  ,  J, :i’f’€)'é’.h?</5 T

What additional documents need to be provided?

ted though.

What are the next steps?

After the receipt of your residence registration, we will send you a confirmation of registration,
stating that you are allowed to continue to work until the residence document (Aufenthaltsdoku-
ment-GB) is issued. You can show this confirmation to your employer.

The issuance of the residence document (Aufenthaltsdokument-GB) takes a little more time.
First we have to examine the documents we have received, then you and, if applicable, your
family members (third country) will receive a binding appointment for a personal visit. And only
then can the document be ordered from the Bundesdruckerei. You will receive it by post sent to
your home address.

The fee for the residence document is EUR 37 for persons aged 24 or older and EUR 22.80 for
younger holders. For family members who are already holding a residence card or permanent
residence card, the document is issued free of charge.

Fictional certificate for urgent travels: ~

As from 1 January 2021, re-entry into Germany is only possible with a proof of residence. Until
you have received your residence document, you need a fictional certificate. If you need to travel
urgently and soon, you may apply for a fictional certificate with your registration (fee of EUR 13).
