Your movers are handled and your flights are booked. What is not handled are the contracts, the deposit and the accounts that stay open in your name after you land back home.
Cancel your German contracts — Upload your last invoice. We find every contract and post the German letter. Every guide says the Abmeldebescheinigung — the deregistration certificate — is what ends contracts early.
The three things only you have to do — Fuel card, utilities, car insurance — the ones no German service knows exist. All three fail the same way: one side considers the matter closed because the other side knows about it.
What happens if you just leave? — The honest answer, with figures — including what does not happen. Everyone asks this before they ask anything else, and almost nobody gets a straight answer.
Where do I actually stand? — Two dates, saved in your browser, and every other tool stops asking for them. Every tool on this site needs the same date, and none of them remembered it.
What should I do today? — One date in, at most three things out — because a list of thirty is a list nobody reads. There are around thirty things to do before you leave Germany, spread over six months.
Everything with a date on it — Twelve processes, sorted by what is due first. Utilities, vehicle, broadcasting fee, mail forwarding, bank account, deposit.
Twenty minutes at the door decide your deposit — What to photograph, what you do not owe, and the sentence to write in before signing. The handover protocol is signed in twenty minutes, in German, in the middle of moving out.
Selling what you cannot take — A German listing reaches twenty times more buyers than the base groups. Everyone sells to the same few thousand people on post, at the same time, because everyone leaves at once.
Delayed shipment — Four questions, and you know whether the clock has already started and what you need to keep.
PCS checklist — The wider move, phase by phase, from ninety days out to after you land.
Your contract is not in Germany — Guided entry in the language your invoice is actually written in. You have an Italian invoice and an English form.
