Kalender, © picture alliance
For visa, passport, German birth certificate/surname declaration or registration of a marriage contracted abroad/marital name/divorce notarization/legalization of powers of attorney, an appointment is absolutely necessary.
Please arrange ONE appointment for EACH person. You will find our appointment system HERE. (It is only available in German and Spanish)
For German nationality procedures, paternity acknowledgments and applications for inheritance certificates, please contact us first via our contact form. In these cases, an appointment is only possible after prior consultation with the consulate.
Attention!
Due to the high demand for visa appointments, the actual application in all visa categories is only possible after a longer waiting period.
We very much regret these circumstances and will do our best to process applications as soon as possible after the respective appointment date, within 7-9 weeks. You can assist us in the processing of visa applications by refraining, whenever possible, from requesting special appointments or requesting information on the processing status of your submitted visa application. This way, our staff at the consulate will be able to focus on the processing of your visa applications.
You will receive a reference number immediately after registration.
The booking procedure simplifies the process for all customers. You will immediately receive a registration number and in all cases you will be assigned the earliest possible date or you can schedule your appointment at your convenience.
Important information for university students: Should you not be able to book an appointment 10 weeks prior to the start of the semester please contact us via contact form. We wish to enable as many students as possible to start their studies in Germany on time.
The Embassy always offers as many appointments as possible to keep waiting times as short as possible. However, we ask you to understand that early special appointments can only be made in exceptional humanitarian and medical cases as well as for students (10 weeks prior to the beginning of a semester) or cases of pre-consent of the Federal Labour Office for qualified workers.
Only in these cases will you receive a special appointment within a few working days. With all other appointments at special dates your inquiry cannot be answered!
