What is this?

This bot assists you in booking an appointment from either https://otv.verwalt-berlin.de/ams/TerminBuchen or https://service.berlin.de/dienstleistung/.

Booking an LEA appointment without the bot involves filling out the form every 10 minutes and continually clicking the 'Next' button. It's an exhausting process. Even if you reach the date selection page, someone else may secure the appointment before you, leaving you to repeat the process over and over. The bot automates these manual steps for you. You just need to complete the initial form once and then run the bot. When you hear the alert and notification, proceed with the remaining steps manually (choosing the time, solving the reCAPTCHA, and entering your name, date of birth, and email) to finalize your appointment.

For booking a Bürgeramt appointment, while you don't need to complete a form beforehand, you still must frequently refresh the page, which can lead to being blocked for an hour if done too often. The bot refreshes the page every 60 seconds for you, streamlining the process.

💡 Tips 💡

You'll most likely get an appointment during working hours when they release new slots. Outside of working hours, you might occasionally see available time slots when people cancel their appointments, but it's nearly impossible to secure one. If you run the bot from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday to Friday, you should be able to get an appointment within 2-3 weeks. Cheer up!
