Jurisdiction
The immigration office (Ausländerbehörde) of the Ostalbkreis district administration operates at two service locations: in Aalen (Stuttgarter Straße) and in Schwäbisch Gmünd (Oberbettringer Straße). Which office is responsible for you depends on the municipality you live in - the two locations divide up the district's municipalities between them. Important: The cities of Aalen and Schwäbisch Gmünd themselves run their own municipal immigration offices; the district administration is responsible for the remaining towns and municipalities of the Ostalbkreis.
