Hmm, I would be really curious to see what happens when a foreigner with an Identitetskort leaves the EU. Maybe those countries that accept an EU ID would also accept that?
I'm not sure about this but I think the German residence card, if you have one, is "ID" enough for a lot of things inside Germany, but there are still cases when you have to use your passport. I know at least one person who drives around with her residence permit and her driving license, but doesn't carry her passport regularly.
- drakonka 4y agoI usually carry my passport as well (though now I also have a national ID card which I think can take its place within the EU while traveling). But I don't think that being able to travel with the thing is a requirement for it to be acceptable as an "additional photo ID" for the kinds of validation we're talking about here. Even if I can't travel with my Skatteverket or residence permit cards, they have been regularly accepted as ID verification for services based outside of Sweden. They've been sufficient when it comes to showing that I do indeed have the relevant Swedish identification documents and reside here. I think once, possibly for E-trade, this was coupled with having to provide a bill sent to my Swedish address. But that shouldn't really be a big issue either for anyone actually residing in another country.
