This guide is aimed at everyone who wants to complete an i-Kfz procedure online in Wolfhagen – including the specifics and responsibilities for Wolfhagen.

At a glance

The costs of a registration consist of the official fee, the licence plates and shipping. Internet-based registration (i-Kfz) is generally cheaper regarding the official fee than the in-person appointment. The following amounts are typical example values – you see the specific final price before completing the order.

This guide applies to all registration offices in Wolfhagen.

Official fees (example values)

The official fee depends on the procedure and is charged by the registration office. It is a pass-through cost and applies either way – in person or online. Typical amounts:

New registration (i-Kfz): around €18–22
Transfer / change of keeper (i-Kfz): around €18–22
Change of address: around €4–6
Taking out of service (i-Kfz): around €4–8
Personalised plate: around €13 on top (assignment plus reservation)

Additional costs: plates and shipping

If new plates are assigned, the cost of the embossed plates is added – these start at around €11.95 depending on type and size. In addition there is shipping of the plates, stickers and documents by post.

When keeping the plates or with a simple change of address, the plate costs usually do not apply.

What an in-person appointment costs on top

The official fee is only part of the bill. Going to the office adds travel and parking, waiting time on site and often a second visit if documents are missing. As most offices only open on weekdays and for limited hours, this usually means taking time off work – for half a working day that quickly exceeds the fee itself. Online, none of this applies: you complete the procedure in minutes from home, documents and stickers arrive by post.
