Germany is a very developed country in Europe. In this country, there is no single powerful center to which everyone en masse would strive to get into. This arrangement of the centers contributes to the fact that everyone can be anywhere in the country. But how, then, to find a person in Germany by name and surname?
Instructions
Step 1
Decide who you are looking for - a person with whom you simply lost contact, or a fallen soldier. In both cases, start your search for the right person on the Internet.
Step 2
Go to the official website of the German telephone directory https://www.telefonbuch.de/ to find the person you want. Enter your surname in Latin letters and click the Finden button. Consider the peculiarities of the spelling of the surname and first name in German. The spelling may differ because in the German language there are only 25 letters, against the Russian 33. Look in the dictionary. Also check yourself with an atlas for the correct spelling of German place names. Such a telephone directory will give you not only the home address, but also the person's e-mail. Please note that the data in the phone book is entered only with the permission of the owners. Therefore, the chances of finding the person you need are 50 to 50
Step 3
Look for a person in the so-called registration office. Einwohnermeldeamt on site https://www.ewoma.de/. Also search on popular social networks - almost every German has an account
Step 4
Place a paid search ad in numerous publications in the country. The Germans (indigenous people) are very helpful and will help you at the slightest opportunity. Also place ads on people search sites.
Step 5
Contact the German Federal Police Office. Explain the situation and ask for help with the search.
Step 6
