Language visa for countries with visa facilitations

If you come from a country with visa facilitations, entering Germany is very simple! Thanks to an agreement between Germany and your home country, you can directly enter Germany without applying for a visa in your home country. Once you've arrived in Germany, you will receive a Schengen Visa, which is valid for 90 days. Since this is a tourist visa, you also have the opportunity to move freely not only within Germany but also throughout the entire Schengen Area. You can also participate in a German course of your choice.

What happens if I want to stay in Germany for more than 90 days?

If you intend to have a longer stay, such as to complete a German language course, you can convert the Schengen visa into a different type of visa.

For your visa, you should meet the following requirements:

German language visa

If you want to come to Germany to improve your language skills, you should definitely opt for a German Language Course Visa, as it allows you a stay of three to twelve months. However, it's important to note that with this visa, you are not allowed to work in Germany, as the focus should be on learning German. For the visa application, you will need a motivation letter to the embassy. In this letter, you should describe in detail why you want to take a language course in Germany. If you need assistance with this, we are also happy to provide you with tips and guidance.

And also, when it comes to questions about an official interview at the Foreigners' Office, speakeasy Frankfurt are there to provide you with help and support.

German Study Preparation Visa

If you want to take a language course to prepare for your studies in Germany, you will need a German Study Preparation Visa, which allows you to stay in Germany for up to two years. This visa, which you can apply for directly in Germany, is usually granted for twice the duration of the chosen language course. This means that if you participate in a language course for four months, you will typically receive a visa for 8 months. Once you are enrolled at a university, the Study Preparation Visa can be converted into a Student Visa.

To obtain a Study Preparation Visa, you should meet the following requirements:

You possess a qualification for university entrance.
You must attend a personal interview at the immigration office.
