Separate your documents into groups

Keep identity documents, academic documents, admission documents, financial evidence and appointment-related documents separately.

Use the current checklist issued by the competent German mission or authority as the final reference.

  • Passport and required copies
  • University admission or relevant academic documents
  • Language evidence where required
  • Financial evidence where required
  • Application forms, photographs and appointment documents
  • Additional documents requested for your individual case

Check consistency before submission

Review names, dates, passport details and other important information across your documents.

Keep a complete digital backup of the final submission set in a secure location.
