Public Service Centres Close for December 16 Holiday—Except Two
Public service centres across the region will close on the holiday, December 16, 2025. However, two locations—Hessdorf and Datteln—will remain open with adjusted hours for essential services that day.
Most government offices, including specialised branches, will shut completely for the national holiday. The state corporation confirmed the closure of all public service centres on December 16.
The holiday closures will affect most public services later in December. Only Hessdorf and Datteln will provide limited access on the holiday itself. Residents needing passports or residency services should check local opening times in advance.
