Accessibility statement

The Brandenburg Ministry of the Interior and for Municipal Affairs (MIK) endeavours to make its website accessible without barriers in accordance with the Brandenburg Ordinance on Creating Accessible Information Technology (BbgBITV) and the Brandenburg Equal Opportunities for Disabled Persons Act (BbgBGG).

This accessibility statement applies to service.brandenburg.de.

This website is partially compatible with the Brandenburg Ordinance on Creating Accessible Information Technology (BbgBITV) and the Brandenburg Equal Opportunities for Disabled Persons Act (BbgBGG) because of the following incompatibilities.

Non-accessible contents

The content listed below is not accessible for the following reasons:

• The accessible use of forms is limited. Input fields, mandatory fields incorrectly completed or not completed at all are not identified with sufficient visibility and contrast. The auto-completion of forms is not yet supported.
• The usability of pages by means of a keyboard is limited. This concerns the selection of menu points and the use of maps.
• The HTML syntax is not valid throughout. For example, the order of headings is sometimes not maintained.
• Orientation by means of meta information is limited because individual page titles are not available throughout.

Work on rectifying these faults is ongoing. This statement will be updated on completion of the revisions.

Service.brandenburg.de provides links on the homepage and from various subpages to services from other authorities and state administration institutions. Some of these may not be accessible, for example, because they offer PDF documents that are not accessible. These are third-party services over which we have no influence and which do not fall within the scope of the BbgBITV. However, we will be happy to forward your comments regarding this content to the providers in question.
