Sample Schufa Score Report

Let’s check what is in the Schufa Score Report

In an earlier post I had already described how you can request your score report from Schufa. As you have seen, your Shufa score is relevant if you want to open a bank account, apply for a credit card or get a SIM card. Let’s now have a closer look at the score report. The sample report that I will describe in this post is made up of six pages and I’m gonna show you how to interpret your Schufa score report.

On page 6 you can see your overall score. This is probably the most important figure in the Schufa report as it shows how reliable you are in terms of financial obligations. In the below example the overall score is 96.35%, meaning a low risk.
