Detailed description
You can use the ID/Passport Application Status online service on the Hamburg Service Portal to check whether your requested ID card or passport is ready for collection. To do this, you will need the serial number, which you can find on your collection slip. The collection slip will be given to you when you apply at the Hamburg Service Center.
Important note regarding identity cards:
Before you collect your identity card, please be sure to read the instructions under -Collecting identity cards-.
