About five days ago, Szczecin → Berlin, stopped, had my documents meticulously examined and asked some typical questions I haven't been asked for a decade ("What's your proof of residence", etc).

I look like a typical WASP programmer in his forties, so no selection bias or something.

What counts as proof of residence in this case? Asking so I could prepare.
mObywatel is enough.
