Offenbach was among the pilot authorities for an AI add-on to the nationwide 'Aufenthalt Digital' online residence-permit service, which checks whether uploaded documents match what's required and flags gaps before submission. Piloted from early 2026 alongside Leipzig, Lörrach, Hildesheim, Fürth, Dachau district and the Hannover region; the feature went nationwide in mid-2026.
