Since March 1, 2017, people who are resident in Wiesbaden have been able to leave the church at the registry office, as well as at the local administrations with a registry office.

Leaving the church must be declared in person during opening hours.

After leaving the church, the registry office will inform

1. the church concerned
2. the registration office
3. the tax office (informs the employer)
4. the registry office that keeps the marriage or civil partnership register.
