Does "poste restante" require ID in Germany?

10/19/2016 8:30:51 PM

Seeing that the German “poste restante” allows specifying a password instead of a name on the package, it should certainly be possible to receive a package without an ID check. Rough Google Translate of the relevant page:

The receiver’s address must be structured as follows:

Name of the addressee or – in ordinary shipments – even passwords /
pseudonyms etc.

…

John Doe or password: Blume69
Postlagernd
Münsterplatz 17
53111 Bonn

So the answer is yes, as long as a password is specified on the package address, rather than a specific name.
