Bürgerportal by TEC2DATE is a digital portal that connects residents, local authorities and other organisations. With a free Bürgerportal account, you can submit documents, read digital mail, check appointments and send messages.

These may include town and city councils, Jobcenters, child and youth welfare services, or providers of education and employment programmes. Associations and private companies can also carry out these tasks. Depending on the services offered by the participating organisation, you can submit applications and documents and receive follow-up questions or official decisions.
