With the beA app you can have mobile access to your special electronic lawyer mailbox (beA) as well as other beA mailboxes for which you are authorized. You can open and read messages and attachments in all folders. You can also send prepared draft messages and electronic acknowledgments of receipt via the beA app.
To use the app, you absolutely need a software token (beA software certificate), which you can order from the Federal Chamber of Notaries. To do this, go to the BNotK online shop at https://zertigungsstelle.bnotk.de/produkte/bestellung-werbung-bea.
In order to use the app, you must deposit the software token in your beA web application for your mailbox and activate it with your beA card. You can then easily transfer the software token to the app using a QR code.
After the one-time setup, you can log in to the beA app at any time with the PIN of your software token or with biometric data, e.g. Face ID (facial recognition) or Touch ID (fingerprint).
Further information can also be found in the beA user help at https://handbook.bea-brak.de.
