Federal Republic of Germany Visa (Schengen Visa)

The Federal Republic of Germany applies the same Schengen visa policy as other European countries that are part of the Schengen Area. The European Union member states are considered national states within this area, ensuring the free movement of people and goods, enhancing security, and facilitating shared justice among member countries.

The Schengen Area includes EU member states as well as several non-EU countries. This policy allows visitors to enter the region by land, air, or sea and stay for up to 90 days within a six-month period.

This policy is implemented across twenty-seven countries, including Germany, all of which follow the same rules and procedures for issuing visas. These countries are:

Austria – Belgium – Croatia – Czech Republic – Denmark – Estonia – Finland – France – Germany – Greece – Hungary – Iceland – Italy – Latvia – Liechtenstein – Lithuania – Luxembourg – Malta – Netherlands – Norway – Poland – Portugal – Slovakia – Slovenia – Spain – Sweden – Switzerland
