The head of the district administration emphasized "that the civil status and document system is a yardstick for the quality of a state's administration". That is why it is important to exchange ideas and benefit from each other's experiences. The topics of the symposium are diverse and range from current developments in parentage law, religious marriages in Islamic law and the legal treatment of underage marriages in Germany to the challenges associated with identity fraud and false identities.
There are points of contact with the district office because the district office is the lower specialist supervisory authority for the registry offices in the district and spring and autumn training courses are held in the district building on behalf of the Ministry of the Interior by specialist consultants, i.e. employees of the registry offices and specialist supervisors, for registrars and employees of the district office.
