Anyone carrying out an activity involving pathogens must notify the competent authority immediately of any significant change in the nature of the rooms and facilities, the disposal measures and the type and scope of the activity.

An activity with pathogens is the introduction of pathogens within the meaning of the Infection Protection Act (IfSG) into the Federal Republic of Germany, the execution, storage, delivery or working with them.
Which other documents must be submitted together with the notification depends on the type of change (e.g. updated sketch of the location of the rooms in the case of structural changes) and should be agreed with the competent authority in advance if necessary.
Proceedings
The notification of change is submitted via the online procedure to the government responsible for the registered office. If you wish to submit the notification in paper form, please contact the government responsible.
Fees
An administrative fee is charged to the applicant, taking into account the time and effort involved and the importance of the matter (Kostengesetz - KG). Depending on the individual case, the costs generally range from €5.00 to €160.00; this information is provided as a guide.
Deadlines
The notification of change must be made immediately, i.e. without undue delay.
