The branches of the German People's List may make subsequent surveys in individual cases, in particular supplementary questionnaires. (25) The Germans entered in the German People's List must be issued with an identification card in accordance with the appropriate model (Appendix b). The persons entered in Sections 1 or 2 receive a blue one, the persons registered in Section 3 have a green one, and those registered in Division 1 or 2. 4 Registered a red ID. The IDs are to be obtained from the Reichsdruckerei. A marking of the blue IDs, which indicates to the outside whether the owner is registered in Division 1 or Division 2, may not take place in any form. Since the foreign nationals of the Reichsführer 4i, Reichskommissar für die Festigung deutschen Volkstum, who can be described as German-speaking, also receive an identification document about this, it is necessary to refrain from the general issue of nationality cards in future in order to avoid unnecessary administrative work. Nationality cards or home documents must be issued only on application in accordance with the general regulations, after a corresponding identification of the German People's List or of the Reichsführer W, Reichskommissar for the consolidation of German ethnicity, has been taught. In the cases in which the places of the German People's List deny German ethnicity, although it has been recognised so far, previously issued nationality cards are to be recovered from the exhibition authorities. The exhibition authorities have to inform the Reichsssicherheitshauptamt of this. (26) If persons who are admitted to the German People's List carry non-German names, they will have to accept a German name on a regular basis.
