The introduction of the new German biometric passport on 1st - quirements for the technical systems at the local passport authorities and the computing departments of the city administration. The capturing of biometric information and the process of assuring the usability of biometric data for the biometric information to the central production facilities of Bundesdruckerei. The identity document application process and the common level of security for the technical environment. However, the local administration bears responsibility for the concrete organization of the process and the kind and type of technical system.
1 Passport ,officies Germany
From a total of 12.400 communities in Germany about 5.300 provide local administration services which run necessary local infrastructural tasks and services for the citizens. Smaller communities in the the administration of the registration data and the enrolment and issuing of passports and identity documents.

2.1 Registration ,and Passport Application Software and Biometric Modules
Since the introduction of the new passport the software products were adapted to the new demands. At states each software product had a regional focus. Even more, administration software often had been developed an operated by computing centres, which were part of the state administration and designed business processes to the needs of their regional customers. Thus infrastructures can be found, where the the registration application.
On the other hand personnel computer based registration applications were The passport and identity document application process is above the registration data. For the application process a record set from the registration database is being taken and enriched by passport or - tration software the mandatory digital application process and the acquisition of the increase the requirement to handle multimedia data formats: video streams are transmitted from the multimedia data was not very common for administration software and the software systems and databases were not prepared for managing it.
