- § 9 Personal Identity Card Act (PAuswG)
https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/pauswg/__9.html
Did you get divorced and then changed your family name? Then you need to apply for a new identity card if you do not have a valid passport document with the new name.
After a name change, your identity card is no longer valid. If you have had your surname changed, for example after a divorce or the annulment of a civil partnership, you must apply for a new ID card.
There is one exception: as long as you have a valid passport document, i.e. passport or provisional passport, with the new name, you do not have to apply for a new identity card.
The EU logo on the front of the ID card, introduced from August 2, 2021, does not mean that ID cards without this logo become invalid.
The period of validity depends on your age at the time of application:
You can submit the application to any Hamburg Service. Applications can be submitted to any other identity card authority if there is an important reason. In this case, a non-responsibility surcharge applies, which means that the costs of the issuance increase. The approval of the identity card authority at the main place of residence is required for the issuance of the identity card. This will be obtained from Hamburg Service.
