Dear prospective Global Entry member,
Thank you for applying for the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Global Entry (GE) program. Currently your application is in a “Pending Review” status because, as a citizen of Germany, GE participation requires clearance by both CBP and German Federal Police (Bundespolizei, or BPOL).
To move to the next step in the application process you must visit one of the BPOL locations and complete the mandatory Germany background assessment. It is imperative that you provide your PASSID number to BPOL as they will not conduct background checks for GE applicants who do not have a PASSID.
BPOL locations can be found via the link below:

Please work to complete this portion of the application process as soon as possible. Once CBP receives confirmation from BPOL you will become Conditionally Approved, and eligible to complete your interview during the Enrollment on Arrival process when you next visit the United States –no prior appointment is required.
Enrollment on Arrival interviews are currently available at 66 international airports throughout the U.S.
