EU-wide recognition of the German eID card starts on September 29th 2018
The “eIDAS Regulation“ establishes a uniform framework for the cross-border use and mutual recognition of electronic identification means in Europe. Since the notification of the Ger-man eID card was successfully completed at the highest possible level of assurance ("high") in September 2017, the eID function of the German eID card and the German electronic res-idence permit will be recognized throughout Europe for electronic identification in digital ad-ministrative procedures from September 29th 2018 onwards.
