Obtaining a visa to Germany for language courses is possible, but such a visa is considered one of the most difficult to approve.
If you are moving to Germany immediately after school or bachelor's degree with the intention of continuing your studies, in some cases a visa can be obtained without initial German language skills, unless such a requirement is set by a specific consulate (e.g. India, Saudi Arabia, ...).
If you have work experience or a gap year, an initial knowledge of German at A2-B1 level is required to improve your chances. It is therefore important to assess your situation correctly before applying.
We work carefully on each case, so our clients get visas with a wide variety of inputs:
Why is visa support free?
As an official representative of language schools, we receive a commission from the educational institutions. Therefore, we are able to provide services to the client free of charge, while being fully interested in successfully obtaining a visa.
What are the language course requirements for a visa?
In order to obtain a national visa for long-term language courses, the course must last more than 90 days and have a teaching load of at least 18 hours per week. The course must be a German language course.
The course must be 100 percent paid before the visa application can be submitted.
What documents do I need to apply for a visa for language courses?
The following documents are usually required to apply for a national visa for language courses:
- visa application form
- educational documents
- language certificate (if available)
- proof of enrollment in a language school
- proof of full payment for the language course
- health insurance, valid for the period of stay
- proof of financial support
- summary
- motivation letter
The final list of documents may vary slightly from consulate to consulate, so it is important to take into account the requirements of the specific German consulate.
How long does the visa application process take?
Depending on your consulate, it will take one to three months to process your visa. Please note that some consulates have a very long wait for an appointment and this process alone can take three to five months.
How much do language courses in Germany cost?
The average cost of a quality language course in Germany is around 700 euros per month. The final price depends on the length of the course: the longer the course, the lower the cost per month.
Do I need a blocked account for a language visa?
Yes, visa approval requires blocked account. The amount is calculated on the basis of €1,091 per month for the entire duration of the language course.
Do I have to leave Germany after completing a language course?
No, you do not need to leave Germany. If you are in Germany on a language study visa, you can apply for a residence permit for study, work or self-employment without having to reapply for a visa from abroad.
Can I work during a language course?
Yes, you are allowed to work up to 20 hours per week during your language course in Germany.
