Requirements are based on official government and ICAO guidance as of 2026 and may change. Always confirm with the issuing authority before applying.
Since May 2025, German passports (Reisepass) and national ID cards (Personalausweis) require photos taken and certified in person at an approved PointID photo studio. Online-generated photos are not accepted for these two documents.
ID Wizard is suitable for German driver licences, visa applications, and other documents where the PointID rule does not apply. For Reisepass or Personalausweis, please visit a certified PointID studio.
