New lead times

for border and customs clearance

from 1. January 2025

With the introduction of the electronic entry and exit system (EES) in October 2024, it will no longer be permitted to deploy auxiliary police officers at border control. The reason for this is that only officers of the Federal Police (BP) are permitted to post-process control results, which require access to Federal Police databases. Auxiliary police officers are employees of the airport operator who have been trained and sworn in by the Federal Police.

As a result, the BP (Federal Police) has informed the affected airports nationwide about the intended discontinuation of border clearance. This does not apply to airports in Bavaria, where border clearance is carried out by the state police on behalf of the BP.

  • Border clearance: For citizens from non-Schengen countries, please register 48 hours in advance.
  • Customs clearance: Please register 2 hours in advance, within the operating hours.
