Ombudsstelle des Kantons Basel-Stadt

Vermittlung bei Konflikten mit der kantonalen Verwaltung

Checked in August 2026

What this service does for you

If you feel that a cantonal authority made an unfair or too slow decision after a stroke, the Ombudsstelle Basel-Stadt can help. It checks independently if the administration acted correctly and looks for an amicable solution – free of charge and regardless of your place of residence, age, or nationality. It is not responsible for Riehen and Bettingen, for courts, or for private companies and insurance providers. An appointment is required.
