Jurisdiction
The immigration office is located in the Birkenfeld district administration (Schneewiesenstraße 25, Birkenfeld) and is responsible for the entire Birkenfeld district – that is, for the town of Idar-Oberstein and the collective municipalities of Baumholder, Birkenfeld, Herrstein, and Rhaunen. There is only this one location; all residence matters are handled centrally there. One important exception: the fast-track procedure for skilled workers is not handled here, but statewide by the Central Immigration Office for Skilled Worker Immigration of Rhineland-Palatinate in Kaiserslautern.
Responsible for postal codes 54422–55779 (13)
