Exemption from broadcasting fees

Would you like to be exempt from the broadcasting fee? Here you will find the answers to the most important questions.

When can I be exempted from the broadcasting fees?

BAföG receipt is the basis for exemption. As a rule, a document “Zur Vorlage beim Beitrgasservice” is attached to the notification.

I receive BAföG and have received a reminder from the radio station.

Send a copy of your BAföG notification to the broadcaster for the period for which you have been reminded.

If your application is still being processed, you can do the following:

  1. Contact the broadcaster and ask for an extension of the deadline.
  2. Pay the amount and claim it back as soon as you have received your decision.

I have moved and the old address is still on my notification.

Attach a copy of the registration certificate for your current home to the copy of the BAföG notification.

I am missing the document “Zur Vorlage beim Beitragsservice”.

For technical reasons we cannot generate this document again, please simply send a copy of your entire BAföG notification to Beitragsservice.

I can no longer find my BAföG notification, what can I do?

Please use the contact form and indicate the period for which you require your notification (MM.YYYY). If you have moved house in the last year, we also need your new address.
