POSTIDENT procedure for identity verification
As a financial services provider, we at Siemens Finance & Leasing GmbH are required by the Money Laundering Act to clearly identify our contractual partners and to verify the identity of natural persons. To enable identity verification anytime, anywhere, we offer our customers free identification via the POSTIDENT PORTAL. The following three options are available for the POSTIDENT procedure.
Identification at the post office
For identification purposes as part of our financing offer, you have the option of identifying yourself at any post office. Identification is carried out using a POSTIDENT coupon.
Please do not forget to take your ID with you to the post office.
Online identification – simple, secure, and convenient.
To verify your identity for our financing offer, you can do so directly via video chat on your smartphone or tablet with your ID card. This eliminates the time-consuming trip to the post office to have your ID card verified using Postident. Your details will be compared with those on your ID card and photos of you and your ID card will be taken. A secure video chat connection will be established between your smartphone or tablet for this purpose.
Online identification can be carried out with an identity card or passport.
It's very simple... and only takes 5 minutes.
For identification purposes in connection with our financing offer, you have the option of identifying yourself using the new ID function and a card reader. You will need your 6-digit PIN, the AusweisApp2 app, and a supported card reader.
