Paßregister

Explanation:
siehe Link. Wie es scheint führen die unterschiedlichen Paßbehörden die jeweiligen Paßregister. Ich habe keinen Hinweis darauf gefunden, dass es ein übergeordenetes, allgemeines Paßregister gibt. Siehe auch noch bei google unter Ausweisregister!

general passport register Allgemeines Pass-Register

Explanation:
There is no real euqivalent. In Germany passport & ID matters are "managed" by the local police office (in the past, before reunion) there was a subordinate office called "Meldestelle" that was in charge of the mentioned documents. Today it is the police station located close to the person's address.
I would recommend - depending on source - to add an explanatory footnote.
