Refugee ID card
Refugee ID is an official document proving certain circumstances.
Germans after World War II
Displaced persons and refugees from the Soviet zone received an “ ID card for displaced persons and refugees ” based on a model from the Federal Minister for Displaced Persons as proof of their displaced or refugee status in accordance with Section 15 of the Federal Expellees Act of 1953 (BVFG) .
Displaced received the ID A , displaced the card B and Russian zone refugees the card C . The ID entitles the holder to avail of the rights and benefits under the BVFG. The issuance of the ID card also resulted in collective naturalization pursuant to Article 116 (1) of the Basic Law by law .
Before the BVFG came into force, Lower Saxony municipalities also issued a B refugee permit for residents who had moved in after the bombing.
