Installation Access Control

How do I obtain access for my guest(s) to USAG Schweinfurt?

There are four ways to get access for your guests. Visiting family and friends who qualify, or personnel on official business, may be issued a:

1. Installation Pass
2. Guest Pass
3. Access Roster
4. Sign-in

If you have questions about obtaining access for your guests, call the IACS office at
DSN: 354-8875 or CIV: 09721-96-8875.

NOTE: The garrison commander and his representatives reserve the right to refuse installation access based on his or her determination.

If your visitor is from one of the countries listed on the U.S. Department of States State Sponsors of Terrorism list then it requires prior approval from the Garrison Commander. The following countries are currently on this list: Cuba, Iran, Sudan and Syria.

Allowing your friends or guests to drive your USAREUR-plated vehicle requires approval from the military customs office. You do not need the approval if you will be traveling in the car whenever they drive. More...
