Entry and stay regulations in Germany


Dear Visitor /Dear Newcomer!

Moving to another country is always stressful. Here you will find the first overview of what you should expect in terms of legal paperwork.
It may simplify things a lot, save time and sometimes money if you bring all the relevant documents to Germany (marriage certificate, university diplomas, birth certificate of children) legalized (or with an apostille) and translated into German. Please note, that the documents should be translated AFTER they are legalized/provided with an apostille.
