Notify the amateur radio administration of a change to your personal data
As a radio amateur with an assigned German amateur radio call sign, you must always inform the Federal Network Agency immediately of any changes to your personal data.
Description

This applies, for example, to name changes, a change of residence or a change of nationality.
In addition, you can object to the publication of your address and the location of your fixed amateur radio station in the callsign list and the callsign query via a change notification.
