Getting a student visa is a crucial step for international students planning to study in Germany. Here’s a detailed guide to make the process easier:
1. Who Needs a Student Visa?
Non-EU/EEA students planning to study in Germany for more than 90 days will need a German national visa (student visa).
2. Requirements for a German Student Visa
To apply, you’ll need:
- Admission letter from a German university.
- Proof of sufficient financial resources (blocked account with approx. €11,208 per year).
- Valid passport.
- Health insurance proof.
- Academic transcripts and certificates.
3. Application Process
- Complete the visa application form online or at the nearest German consulate.
- Schedule an appointment for a visa interview.
- Submit your documents during the interview and pay the visa fee.
4. Financial Proof (Blocked Account)
A blocked account is a special bank account that demonstrates you have enough funds to cover your living expenses in Germany. Open this account before your visa appointment.
5. Processing Time
Student visa applications typically take 6-12 weeks to process, so it’s important to apply well in advance.
