Register for a BundID account:

The portal www.einmalzahlung200.de explains that students must first register for a BundID account in order to apply and how to do so.

There are two ways to register for a BundID account:

  1. Registration with username and password: This registration may be used if electronic proof of identity is not available or cannot be used. When registering for the BundID account in this way, you must enter your first name, last name and date of birth exactly as this data is stored in your personal account in ALMA. For the BundID account created in this way, ýou will need the PIN provided by the University in the subsequent application process.
  2. Registration using electronic ID: This registration requires an electronic proof of identity (electronic ID card, electronic residence permit, electronic proof of identity of an EU member or an ELSTER certificate). The procedure for this registration is explained in the portal. This form of registration for a BundID account does not require a PIN provided by the University in the subsequent application procedure.
