Anmeldebescheinigung: Disambiguation

The Anmeldebescheinigung is NOT the same as the Meldezettel. The Meldezettel is a basic address registration form for all residents. The Anmeldebescheinigung is specifically an EU residence certificate issued under EU freedom of movement rules. It is also distinct from the Aufenthaltstitel (residence permit) required by non-EU citizens, which is a different document with different requirements.
