Money Laundering Act (GwG)
The new Money Laundering Act came into force on June 26, 2017. According to this, the so-called “obligated parties” such as credit and financial services institutions, insurance companies, tax advisors, real estate agents and goods dealers have their contractual partner for establishing a business relationship by recording their first and last name, place of birth, date of birth, nationality, address, type, number and Identify the issuing authority of the document presented for verification of identity. Pursuant to Section 8 (2) sentence 2 of the GwG, this recording obligation can also be carried out by presenting an ID, of which the person obliged can and must make a complete copy. There is no longer any obligation to redact certain data. According to § 8 III 2 GwG, these records are to be kept for five years and then immediately destroyed.
