Achieve Your Goals

Group IACS Information

Here are a few guidelines to follow when filling out the access roster request form for your conference. Please read the instructions below carefully to avoid any delays. The Installation Access Control System follows U.S. Army Europe policy and regulation, which Edelweiss Lodge and Resort facilities also fall under. Edelweiss Lodge and Resort cannot process access to any conference being held on this installation; it must be processed by the Garmisch IACS office. Please see below:

1.  Scroll over to the red corner on the right side of each column. This will tell you exactly what to insert in the column. Input all the correct information for your attending conference members.

2. The “ID Number” column on the access form is the ID number on the approved document the guest will use to enter the installation. A passport, country ID card, and Ausweis are all valid documentation for access. Foreign military ID cards are not accepted as documentation for access to this installation. The ID must be current, valid (not expired), and contain a photo.

3. Please do not send an incomplete spreadsheet; each column must be filled out correctly with the requested information.  If you add more information onto the form than what is requested directly, the IACS office cannot process the information or make modifications. If an incomplete form is sent, the entire request will not be processed.

4. The conference sponsor must be an official DoW ID cardholder; preferably they will be the one sending it to the IACS office. However, another DoW ID cardholder may be designated as a sender. The cardholder should ideally be registered in IACS in Europe. If they are not, the situation will be evaluated to ensure compliance with regulations.

5.  When you are finished, please send the completed form to the IACS office (See #7 below). In addition to the spreadsheet, please provide in the email the POC, contact information, and name of the conference, and explain any special access request you may have that is not included on the request form. Ensure you have encrypted the email since it contains personally identifiable information.

6. Please email the form from an official military/DoW email address, e.g., .mil, .state, etc. IACS will not accept your request if it is not from an official email address. Commercial emails like Yahoo, Hotmail, etc., cannot be verified, and the request cannot be processed.

7. Email the information to: usarmy.bavaria.id-europe.list.des-garmisch-iacs@army.mil

8. You must submit the access request form seven working days before your conference requires installation access.

9. To review the status of your request, please contact the Garmisch IACS office directly: DSN: 540.3558, Commercial: 08821.750.3558 Office Hours: Monday-Friday 0800-1700 Closed on weekends, American holidays, USAREUR training holidays
