Apply for card - Applying for a card for a minor

An application for a card for a minor must always be filed with a bank branch.

In the power of attorney, (s)he authorises the other guardian/parent to apply for the card. The child must personally be present when applying for the card, or when collecting it at the latest, so that matters related to the use of the card can be talked through with him/her.
