What Landesamt für innere Verwaltung M-V, Amt für Migration und Flüchtlingsangelegenheiten does

Landesamt für innere Verwaltung (LAiV) is an upper state authority (Obere Landesbehörde) of the German federal state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, established on January 1, 2006, and headquartered at Lübecker Straße 287, Schwerin. It operates under the Ministry of Inner Affairs and Construction and is structured into five divisions: General Affairs (Abteilung 1), Procurement (Abteilung 2), the Amt für Geoinformation, Vermessungs- und Katasterwesen (AfGVK — Abteilung 3), the Statistisches Amt (Abteilung 4), and the Amt für Migration und Flüchtlingsangelegenheiten (AMF — Abteilung 5). It also discharges the state's election-administration duties through the Landeswahlleitung.

The agency's functional portfolio spans four statutory workstreams. The Statistical Office produces the state's official demographic, economic, social, and environmental indicators (published in the monthly Zahlenspiegel and statistical yearbooks). AfGVK maintains the state's official geospatial reference system, including ALKIS cadastral data, topographical maps (TK10/TK25), Digitale Orthophotos, the Bodenrichtwerte land-valuation register, and the SAPOS satellite positioning service; these are exposed through GeoPortal.MV, the GAIA-MVlight viewer, and the download portal (laiv.geodaten-mv.de), increasingly under OpenData (CC BY 4.0) licensing. The AMF handles reception, accommodation, and care of asylum seekers and refugees in cooperation with the federal BAMF, and additionally supports regional employers in skilled-worker immigration from non-EU countries. The procurement division operates centralized purchasing for all state agencies (from stationery to police vehicles) and runs the Zentraldruckerei. Technical infrastructure is delivered by DVZ Datenverarbeitungszentrum Mecklenburg-Vorpommern GmbH.

LAiV has approximately 400 staff and serves the entire state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (population ~1,573,685 as of December 2025). Customer constituencies include state and municipal authorities, the federal BAMF, regional companies seeking international talent, asylum seekers/refugees, and citizens requiring official data. The entity is wholly state-owned and funded through the Land budget — it is not a commercial enterprise — with only modest fee income from maps, publications, and certifications; an increasing portion of offerings (OpenData, Bodenrichtwerte since February 2026) is now provided free of charge. Strategic positioning rests on statutory exclusivity, exclusive custody of sovereign data, and membership in federal-state data cooperations (Statistischer Verbund, AdV, GDI-DE/INSPIRE).
