Abstract
A method for controlling a locking device of an electric charging port of a vehicle. The vehicle has a keyless entry system, which makes it possible for the vehicle to be unlocked without the active operation of a vehicle key. Presence information of the vehicle key in the vicinity of the vehicle is detected and further a state of charge is detected that indicates whether a charging process is currently taking place via the charging port. The locking device is activated depending on the presence information and the state of charge.
