Security control
EasyPASS
Passengers who already have a biometric passport or new German identity card can use the automatic passport control gates. Third-country nationals aged 12 and over with an electronic passport and a German residence permit can also use EasyPASS and, by doing so, pass border controls more quickly. This does not apply to children’s passports. More
