Dear Bavarian residents,

the Bavarian Centre for Families and Social Affairs (ZBFS) is a central state authority with responsibility for a range of social benefits and services in Bavaria. Various family benefits paid to parents fall under our remit, as does formal recognition of the disability status of severely disabled persons.

ZBFS is directly subordinate to the Bavarian Ministry of Labour and Social Welfare, Families and Integration. Headquartered in Bayreuth, we also have offices throughout Bavaria in Munich, Nuremberg, Augsburg, Regensburg, Würzburg and Landshut. more
