The procedure is as follows:

• Depending on the foreigners' registration office and concerns, it may be possible to apply via the Internet. Find out whether your immigration office offers the electronic application.
• If the application is only possible in person, make an appointment with the Foreigners' Registration Office. During the appointment, your application will be accepted and your proofs will be checked (bring them with you to the appointment). Your fingerprints will be taken for the production of the MobilerICT card.
• In the event of an electronic application, the Foreigners' Registration Office will contact you after receipt of your online application in order to make an appointment at the Foreigners' Registration Office if necessary. During the appointment, your certificates will be checked (bring them to the appointment) and your fingerprints will be taken for the production of the Mobile ICT card.
• If your application is granted, the Foreigners' Registration Office will arrange for the mobilerICT card to be produced.
• After about six to eight weeks, you can pick up the MobilerICT card at the Immigration Office.
• The mobile ICT card must always be picked up in person.

Alternatively, you can also send the application to the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees via the BSCW server (https://bscw.bund.de). The competent immigration authority will then decide on the application.
