What do I have to be aware of when going through border control with EasyPASS?
Using EasyPASS is very simple: If you wear headgear, sunglasses or, for example, a face mask, please take them off beforehand. Place the electronic passport with the photo page on the document reader and press the lower half of the passport to the entry kiosk as well. EasyPASS then scans the data on the document and opens the gate door. As a German citizen, you can also use the electronic German identity card with a credit card format. Now enter the gate and proceed until the silhouettes depicted in the exit door roughly line up. While doing so, look straight ahead so that the camera located in the exit door can check and perform the facial image verification.
If only a green arrow appears, you can pass without further inspection. If a police officer is shown to you, please go to the follow-up check.
