EasyPass enrollment for GlobalEntry enrollees: what to do after you change passport?

1/11/2017 2:23:32 PM

Having successfully reregistered, I can answer my question now.

The procedure to update your passport information is manual, and exactly the same as for the registration. Which means, you have to come to the Bundespolice station in an airport, and bring a filled up form and your current passport. Your old passport is not needed.

Also the police told me that in a few weeks Germany will open EasyPass for citizens of 15 nationalities (US, UK, Australia and similar) without registration. Which means you’d be able to use EasyPass gates without having to register first.

A side note: when you put your passport into the EasyPass gate scanner, do NOT flatten it out and slide it all the way into the reader like you do with GlobalEntry machines – it won’t read. Instead keep it half-open (at 90 degrees), and slide it in until the corner hits the reader body. Then wait, and it will read. If you’re getting ‘X’ with your registered passport, this is the exact reason.
