Why don't you try the German embassy? There must be some BGS (or Bundespolizei, as they are now called) people there, and as far as I can tell, the only difference between now and then is the shoulder straps (in 1998, still like the Wehrmacht Beamte type) and the collar tabs (like Wehrmacht). I bet the guys in Kiev do not have the brand-new blue uniform yet.

regards, Karl

Crowback,

The uniform you link to is an East German Volkspolizei uniform, not border police. In East Germany it was the Grenztruppen der DDR who provided border control. In West Germany it was the Bundesgrenzschutz as Karl mentioned. Wrong uniform to answer this question.
