Ukrainian refugees living in Germany can now use the new AusweisApp2 application to apply for services digitally. We will tell you more about it below.
In particular, the mobile application will allow you to submit applications for which you had to identify yourself in person at a government agency. Now you can do it right on your phone.
What is the app for?
Thanks to the online version of the electronic residence permit, you can easily confirm your identity. To do this, you need to read the data from the chip of your electronic residence permit with an NFC smartphone and send it to the required service using the AusweisApp2 app in encrypted form.
This way, you can now open a bank account online quickly and easily, apply for support under the Federal Education Assistance Act (BAföG) or register with the Federal Employment Agency.
You can manage your own PIN, find out about operator offers, and get information about your residence permit using the app. You can also use the app to check whether your device can read the online version of your electronic residence permit and whether the online version function is activated.
Important! To use the application, your phone/tablet must support NFC. You need to use this chip to read your residence permit.
The application is called AusweisApp2. It can be downloaded from the в Apple App Store, Huawei App Gallery and Google Play Store.
We remind you! Germany has become the worst country for foreign nationals coming to work there. You can find out what problems expats face in this country here.
