i'm a german citizen, living in the states with a permanent resident card. I want to visit my family in germany but my passport has still my maiden name on it. What do i need to know, and what do i need to take with me?

Daß ist aber sehr einfach! When you leave the US, you use your valid German passport to enter Germany. When you come back to the US, you use your valid Green Card to enter the US. To be on the safe side you may wish to carry a copy of your marriage certificate, and at some point, you really should apply with the German passport office to get a new passport in your new name, but otherwise, no problem!

Rg she is German not US citizen, take as mentioned above your B_certificate marriage license and you green card with you, for Germany you will be OK as you are its citizen of when returning you have your American id's green card and any ICE agent could see that you are one and the same or apply to amend your German passport

You should take you SSID card it well 100% will be needed. Then You'll need prove of your citizenship here. And a passport. If you are not sure ask a guard standing by. Don't take dangerous stuff! Take clothing gifts stuff like that but no gun toys, knife or anything like that.

Same happened to my wife. Just talk to the German Embasy and have them change the name. You'll need to show your marriage certificate, social security card, drivers license, green card or whatever other ID you have...

Take all the documentation in it, and especially take a copy of your marriage certificate - which explains the name change.

Contact the U.S. Passport Agency and explain your problem. They'll be able to help you.
