FreierTermin does not submit applications for you and does not file anything with authorities. Many official online services use BundID or the online ID function (Online-Ausweisfunktion) for login. That happens directly with the authority – FreierTermin can't integrate BundID and doesn't see any data.
We don't know of an official online service for this yet. Please check your authority's website.

The text is put together only in your browser. FreierTermin does not send e-mails to authorities and does not store what you enter.
No. FreierTermin is not a public authority and does not submit anything on behalf of its users. We link to official online services and forms and help you prepare an e-mail to the authority. You send the e-mail yourself from your own e-mail app, and you submit applications directly on the official website.
No. BundID is the federal government's user account and can't be integrated by private providers like FreierTermin. Many of the official online services we link to use BundID or the online ID function (Online-Ausweisfunktion) themselves – you then log in directly with the authority. We don't see any of it.
No. The text is put together only in your browser and sent via your own e-mail app. The authority's reply goes straight to your inbox. FreierTermin sees neither the text nor the reply.
We only show addresses that an official source lists – and we state the source. We never guess (e.g. “[email protected]”). If an address is missing, we point you to the official contact page and the phone number.
