Visa finder/Entry requirements

As a service for our customers, we offer visa applications for download. Some of the applications are online applications, i.e. you can access the corresponding visa form via a link, while others are designed as fillable PDFs and can therefore be completed and printed out directly on the computer if desired. The type of application (online or PDF) depends on the regulations of the respective consular department of the country for whose visa the applicant is applying.

Information on visa requirements can be found on the right under the country selection.

Please note: This is a selection of most visa applications. Documents from countries not listed in this selection can be obtained on request via our service telephone, by e-mail or by using the available links to the embassies.

Under no circumstances does the absence of an entry for a particular country mean that a visa is not required for that country!

FAQ

Can visas for foreign citizens also be applied for here in Germany?

As a rule, visas can be issued to foreigners in Germany if they have their permanent residence here. This must be proven by a German residence permit for non-EU citizens or a registration certificate for other EU citizens.

How can I send you documents?

As you normally send us at least one passport or other documents that are difficult to obtain with the application documents, you should choose the registered mail option. The PostExpress service, which you can also order from your post office, is faster and guarantees delivery on the next working day. Alternatively, you can also order an overnight service from one of the usual providers (e.g. UPS, TNT, DHL). We recommend General Overnight (0800/859 99 99) as your carrier. Finally, you can also deliver documents to us in person during our opening hours or have them delivered directly by a city courier.

What documents must be submitted for my visa application?

As the documents to be submitted are different for each country and depending on the reason for travel, please contact us via our service telephone 030 3400060 or by e-mail (anfrage@servisum.de).

What processing time should I expect? Is express processing available?

The normal processing time for visa applications depends on the country and ranges from 24 hours to six weeks. Faster express processing is often possible for a surcharge (sometimes staggered). In individual cases, please contact our service telephone 030 3400060 for more information. If you specify a delivery date when placing your order, we will automatically apply for the visa at the most favorable rate, taking this delivery date into account.
