3EasyPASS is an automated border control 

process available to registered third-country 

nationals when entering Germany. 

by U.S. Department of Homeland 

Security, CBP, and the Federal Ministry 

of the Interior of the Federal Republic of 

Germany on April 14, 2010, CBP is 

expanding Global Entry eligibility to 

include all German citizens in 

accordance with the terms and 

conditions set forth below. As a result, 

CBP is concluding the limited pilot 

program. All pilot participants will 

continue their Global Entry membership 

for the initial five-year membership 

period. If pilot participants want to 

renew their membership when their 

initial Global Entry membership 

expires, the renewal will be subject to 

the terms and conditions set forth 

below. 

Terms and Conditions 

Any German citizen may apply for 

Global Entry. Unlike the pilot, a German 

citizen does not have to participate in 

ABG Plus to be eligible to apply for 

Global Entry. As noted in the previous 

section, Germany’s ABG Plus trusted 

traveler program has been discontinued. 

Before a German citizen can apply for 

Global Entry, he or she must visit an 

EasyPASS 3 enrollment center in 

Germany and complete a thorough risk 

assessment by the German Federal 

Police. The list of EasyPASS enrollment 

center locations is available at http://

www.easypass.de/EasyPass/EN/

EasyPASS-RTP/rtp_node.html. After a 

German citizen is vetted for Global 

Entry by the German Federal Police, the 

German Federal Police will notify both 

CBP and the applicant that the applicant 

is eligible to apply for Global Entry. 

Then the applicant will be required to 

complete the online application for 

Global Entry located on the GOES Web 

site, pay the non-refundable Global 

Entry fee, and satisfy all the 

requirements of Global Entry. The 

applicant will be permitted to 

participate in Global Entry only upon 

successful completion of a risk 

assessment by CBP and completion of 

an interview with a CBP officer. If an 

applicant is not vetted by the German 

Federal Police prior to applying to 

Global Entry through GOES, the Global 

Entry application will not be processed. 

The vetting criteria were mutually 

agreed upon by both agencies and are 

consistent with each agency’s applicable 

domestic laws and policies. CBP will 

notify the applicants whether or not 

they have been accepted in the Global 

Entry program. 

Applicants may be denied enrollment 

in the Global Entry program for various 

reasons. An individual who is 

inadmissible to the United States under 

U.S. immigration law or has, at any 

time, been granted a waiver of 

inadmissibility or parole is ineligible to 

participate in Global Entry. 

Applications from such individuals will 

automatically be rejected. Applications 

for Global Entry may also be rejected if 

the applicant has ever been arrested for, 

or convicted of, a criminal offense, or if 

the individual has ever been found in 

violation of customs or immigration 

laws, or of any criminal law. 

Additionally, an applicant will not be 

accepted for participation in Global 

Entry if CBP determines that the 

applicant presents a potential risk of 

terrorism, or criminality (including 

smuggling), or if CBP cannot sufficiently 

determine that the applicant meets all 

the program eligibility criteria. The 

eligibility criteria are set forth in more 

detail in the Global Entry final rule and 

8 CFR 235.12. See also http://

www.globalentry.gov. 

Validity Period 

Global Entry has a five-year 

membership period. After the second 

year of membership, German citizens 

will be notified by CBP, via email, that 

they must again visit an EasyPASS 

enrollment center and be vetted by the 

German Federal Police. If a German 

citizen Global Entry member fails to be 

vetted by the German Federal Police 

within the allotted time, Global Entry 

membership will be terminated. These 

additional vetting requirements are not 

applicable to pilot participants during 

their initial five-year Global Entry 

membership. 

U.S. Citizens’ Participation in EasyPASS 

Any U.S. citizen, 18 years of age or 

older, has the option to enroll in 

EasyPASS. EasyPASS is a registered 

traveler program in Germany that 

provides expedited entry into the 

country via the use of eGates, an 

automated border control system that 

uses facial recognition for biometric 

verification of the individual’s identity. 

Consequently, an ePassport is required 

for EasyPASS. A U.S. citizen does not 

have to be a member of a CBP trusted 

traveler program to apply for EasyPASS. 

U.S. applicants may apply for 

EasyPASS at an EasyPASS enrollment 

center in Germany. U.S. applicants must 

register for EasyPASS directly with the 

Government of Germany. There is 

currently no fee associated with 

EasyPASS. The applicant will be 

notified immediately at the enrollment 

center about whether he or she is 

approved for EasyPASS. The limited 

number of U.S. citizens who enrolled in 

ABG Plus, under the eligibility 

conditions described in the August 9, 

2013 Federal Register notice, have been 

automatically enrolled in EasyPASS. 

More information about how to apply 

for EasyPASS and about the program is
