3 Month tourist visa | ID Card
Hello together, when I apply for a 3 month tourist visa they ask me for a "Document indicating current residency" (ID-Card) but my ID card is expired and I can't apply for a new one because I don't have an address in Germany anymore.
They say I have to prove my residency, so they know which embassy is responsible for my application.
What Document do I upload in this case?
Thanks in advance!
