Registration for a visit in October starts on 1 September. The dome is open between 8am and midnight with admission every 15 minutes (last admission 22:00). The dome will be closed to visitors from 10 to 14 October to allow cleaning and maintenance work to be carried.

Guided tours lasting 90 minutes in English run 8 times a day between 9:00 and 20:00 and registration for October started on 1 August. Availability before and during the Do is very limited.

Online registration links may be found here.
Understanding the sign up dates, I contacted them and was told that all guided tours were already booked up months in advance. Not sure what that is all about.

The other option is to schedule a lunch or dinner at the roof top restaurant. I did this and will be there with some friends on Sunday, Oct. 9. You can access the Reichstag and the Dome with the restaurant reservation. I also heard that you can rent the self-guided audio tours with headphones for a do-it-yourself tour.
