Re: ID Requirements
Ah...eventually found it here

The legislation reads:
Quote:
Der Ausländerausweis ist den Behörden auf Verlangen vorzuweisen. Es besteht keine Pflicht, den Ausweis auf sich zu tragen (unveröff. BGE vom 28. November 1997 i.S. A; 6S.636/1997). Es genügt, dass dieser innerhalb nützlicher Frist den zuständigen Behörden vorgelegt werden kann.
Which translates as: you are supposed to show your Ausweis when asked for it; but you do not have to carry it with you. If you are asked to show it, you must produce the Ausweis within a reasonable time.

Cheers,
Nick
