Passport photos for ID cards and passports (including temporary documents) are now available directly from the passport office in the Citizens' Office: Changes to passport photo acceptance from July 2025
Special passport photo machines (PointID devices) from Bundesdruckerei were installed in the municipal administration on June 16, 2025. These allow biometric photos to be captured directly and securely on site while meeting the highest security standards. With the introduction of the PointID devices, the separate trip to the photo service provider is no longer necessary.
Printed biometric passport photos must still be brought along for the driver's license application.
There is a fee of 6 euros for having your passport photo taken at the Citizens' Office. If two identity documents are applied for at the same time for the same person (e.g. identity card and passport), the total fee is 6 euros. Printed passport photos are no longer accepted when applying for an identity card or passport.
We thank you for your understanding and ask you to take note of this change when preparing your visit to our administration.
If you have any questions on this topic, you are welcome to contact the staff at the Citizens' Office by telephone (06351-4909-23, -24, -28, -29) or by e-mail at buergerbuero@vg-goellheim.de.
