The Embassy will be offering a limited number of appointments for passport applications as well as visa applications of applicants who qualify for travel to Germany under the current travel restrictions.

Due to the entry restrictions on all non-essential travel from third countries to the Federal Republic of Germany to contain COVID-19, the Embassy is generally not accepting new visa applications until further notice. An exception may only be made if the applicant is able to demonstrate the existence of compelling reasons that justify entry into Germany under the current rules. The Embassy will inform the public once the situation changes.

Only if you believe there are compelling reasons for a trip to Germany, please apply for an appointment at the Embassy’s consular section by sending an email to appointments@kual.diplo.de explaining why you belong to one of the categories of individuals who are allowed to enter Germany. Please include supporting documentation. Please also mention your intended date of travel. The Embassy will evaluate each case on an individual basis and reply with further instructions.

Please also bear in mind:

When visiting the Embassy, you will have to wear a face mask. Upon entering the building housing the Embassy, you will undergo a temperature screening and will have to fill in a Health Screening form available at the entrance (You might want to bring your own pen). If you have an elevated temperature, you might be refused entry. Please be on time for your appointment. You may arrive not more than 5 minutes before or after your appointment. If you arrive outside this 10 minute window, the Embassy reserves the right to refuse entry due to social distancing requirements.
