Frequently Asked Questions — Germany

What is the country code for Germany?

Germany’s international dialling code is +49. To send a fax to Germany, replace the leading zero of the area code with +49. For example, a Berlin number starting with 030 becomes +49 30, and a Munich number starting with 089 becomes +49 89.

How do I format German fax numbers correctly?

Use +49 followed by the area code without the leading zero, then the subscriber number. Examples: +49 30 xxx xxxx (Berlin), +49 89 xxx xxxx (Munich), +49 40 xxx xxxx (Hamburg), +49 69 xxx xxxx (Frankfurt). Spaces or dashes are optional — we normalise them automatically.

Can I send faxes to German authorities, tax offices, and insurers?

Yes. German public authorities (Behörden), health insurers (Krankenkassen), tax offices (Finanzamt), pension offices (Rentenversicherung), and many law firms still rely on fax for official correspondence. GoFaxNow supports all standard German fax lines. Just enter the +49 number, upload your document, and we dispatch it immediately.

How long does it take to send a fax to Germany?

Most faxes to Germany are dispatched within seconds of payment confirmation and typically complete transmission in 1–3 minutes, depending on the recipient’s line. You receive a transmission result once delivery is attempted, and a PDF confirmation is available for download.

Is GoFaxNow GDPR-compliant for sending documents to Germany?

Yes. GoFaxNow is designed with privacy as a core principle. Unpaid uploads are deleted after 30 minutes; paid and sent faxes are deleted within 2 hours of dispatch. We never archive your documents, never build user profiles, and require no account — fully aligned with GDPR data minimisation requirements.

Do you support sending from outside Germany?

Yes. International sending to +49 is fully supported. Whether you are in the EU, USA, or anywhere else in the world, you can send a fax to any German fax number. Just ensure the destination is an active fax line and the number includes +49.

How do I know my fax was sent?

After dispatch you’ll see a transmission confirmation screen. You can also download a PDF receipt showing the delivery result. While this confirms delivery to the recipient’s fax line, it cannot guarantee that the document was read.

Do you store my files?

No. Unpaid uploads are deleted after 30 minutes; paid and sent faxes after 2 hours. We never store or archive any documents. All processes are fully GDPR-compliant.
