Obligation of identification describes the compulsion to be in possession of a valid identity card and to produce this on demand by authorities. Most countries don't have an obligation of identification for their own citizens within their borders, exceptions include Germany, where an obligation of identification (''Ausweispflicht'') using either a German identity card or passport applies to all citizens over the age of 16.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Act on Identity Cards and Electronic Identification (Personalausweisgesetz, PAuswG) )〕 When a person is entering or exiting a country or state, an obligation of identification is often required, e.g., passport control. ==History== The obligation of identification in Germany was introduced in 1938 by the Nazis for Jews and men of military age and shortly after the start of World War II was extended to apply to all citizens over the age of 15. The identity card was known as Kennkarte. British citizens were obliged to carry identity cards between October 1939 and May 1943.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=JewishGen Blog: The Official Blog of Jewish Genealogy: Jewish Identity Cards )〕 The British identity card did not have a photo of the individual or date of birth, just the name and address. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「obligation of identification」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
