Student ID

ATTENTION: For the summer semester 2024 the Deutschlandsemesterticket will be introduced. We would like to answer a few questions here.

This student ID allows you to access a range of computer-based services.

Handling your student ID carefully

Please handle your student ID with care. Please  do not damage it by laminating, hole-punching, bending or breaking.

You need your Campus Card?

For newly enrolled students at TU Berlin

You can request your student ID and upload a photo for your student ID when activating your IT account.

To avoid error messages or delays while printing your student ID card, please pay close attention to photo requirements in tuPORT. The photo should have a neutral background. Therefore, please use a photo that is also suitable for an identity card. If you do not have a recent photo, you can also use a selfie taken with your smartphone. Please make sure that your face is not covered by objects or similar.

All student IDs will be sent by post. If you have used an address in a foreign country in tuPORT, we will not send your student ID by post. Your student ID card will be deposited for you in the porter's lodge in the main building of the TU Berlin for collection. You will receive more information about this by e-mail as soon as your student ID card has been issued.

The student ID card is valid indefinitely until you de-register.

Have you lost your student ID?

You are a student at the TU Berlin and have lost your current student ID? Please send us an e-mail with a photo and the following information: reason for your concern (loss/defect), first name, last name, date of birth, matriculation number, course of study, degree objective (e.g. Bachelor, etc.) and a proof of payment of 10,23 euros. The 10,23 euros are payable exclusively by bank transfer to the following TU Berlin account:

Berliner Volksbank
IBAN: DE69 1009 0000 8841 0150 03
BIC: BEVODEBB

Additionally, please provide your TU Berlin mail address, as we can only reply to this mail address. If you do not have access to the TU-Berlin account, we ask you for an official proof of your person in order to match the data.

The photo should have a neutral background. Therefore, please use a photo that is also suitable for an identity card. If you do not have a recent photo, you can also use a selfie taken with your smartphone. Please make sure that your face is not covered by objects or similar.

You will receive an email from us with further information once your student ID is ready to be picked up from the University.

You have changed your name and you need a new student ID?

After you have applied for a name change in tuPORT and we have processed this request, you must apply for a new student ID.

To do this, please write us an e-mail with the following content: Reason for reissuing the student ID (name change), matriculation number, your name before name change, your name after name change and a photo of yourself. The photo should have a neutral background. Therefore, please use a photo that is also suitable for an identity card. If you do not have a recent photo, you can also use a selfie taken with your smartphone. Please make sure that your face is not covered by objects or similar.

The application for the student ID in case of data change is free of charge for you. Please note: The old student ID will be not valid any more after the new student ID has been issued and this must be returned to the TU Berlin.

Returning the student ID card

Your student ID card is property of TU Berlin. If you have completed your studies, exmatriculate for other reasons, or were exmatriculated, you must return your studen ID card by mail to the Office of Student Affairs.
