Visa Requirements
Please inquire as early as possible (at least 8 weeks prior to the trip) about visa requirements at a German consulate. You should apply for a visa at the German embassy or consulate in your home country. Once FUBiS has received all payments, we will gladly send you an invitation letter. For all questions, please contact your German embassy or consulate.
It is also recommended that you bring a document (i.e. from your parents or funding agency) to Germany which certifies that you can cover the costs of accommodation, etc. German embassies and consulates require all applicants to procure health insurance coverage for their stay in Germany. All applicants have to provide the corresponding certification.
To find out whether you need to apply for a visa for Germany or not, please visit the homepage of the German Foreign Office at www.auswaertiges-amt.de.
You can find the closest German embassy or consulate to your home address on the website of the German Foreign Office:
http://www.auswaertiges-amt.de.
The Foreign Office furthermore offers a website on Germany.
If you consider travelling to the Czech Republic (e.g. with FUBiS to Prague), you might want to visit the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to find out whether you need to apply for a visa or not.
