The federal states of Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg are reported to seize money from newcomers, leaving them only with a small amount of cash.
Refugees must submit their cash and jewels to the local police when entering a number of European countries, German magazine Spiegel Online reported.
The rule was first introduced by Denmark and Switzerland in December 2015 and caused several protests across Europe. The new measure was aimed at “finding assets which may cover the expenses” of the state, the Washington Post reported earlier.
Now it appears that not only the Danes and Swiss, but also the Germans have started to confiscate money from refugees entering the country.
