In short

Wrong EES record from a crossing in Liechtenstein — a missing exit or a false overstay? You have the right to get it corrected. Here's who to write to, and a letter you can send.

Who to contact

Migration and Passport Office (Ausländer- und Passamt)

Handles requests to see or correct EES data

Full contact details, data protection officer and complaints

Migration and Passport Office (Ausländer- und Passamt) — the data controller to contact to access or correct your EES record. Supervisory authority: the Data Protection Authority (Datenschutzstelle). Liechtenstein is a Schengen-associated state, not an EU member, and applies the EES Regulation through its Schengen association.

Email dsk.apa@llv.li (Giessenstrasse 3, Postfach 684, 9490 Vaduz); data protection officer: datenschutz@regierung.li. Complaints: Datenschutzstelle, info.dss@llv.li.

Not verified per country — the authority's site states accepted languages; we provide the template in German and English.

The procedure

  1. Gather your proof

    Boarding passes, tickets, accommodation and payment records showing where you were.

  2. Fill in a letter

    Use a template below: say which record is wrong and what the correct facts are.

  3. Send it

    To the authority above — or to any other EES country if that's easier. You don't have to use Liechtenstein.

  4. Note the date

    They must reply within 45 days. No answer or a refusal? You can complain to the data protection authority.
If they refuse or don't answer

Action or complaint before the competent authorities or courts (Art. 54), including when the 45-day deadline passes unanswered; the supervisory authority's assistance remains available throughout (Art. 54(2)).

Template letters

Copy a letter, replace every placeholder in curly braces with your details, attach your evidence, and keep a copy of everything you send.
