Suggerimenti

  • The SVN does not change over time, even with a name change, address, or employer.
  • If you don't already have an SVN (e.g. first job), the employer requires it from AOK or your health insurance company on your behalf.
  • The SVN is required on all German pay slips.
  • Don't confuse SVN with Rentenversicherungsnummer: they are the same number with different names.
