EEA/EU and Swiss National Family Members Visa for Germany

Hassle-free visa processing for your travel needs.

The EEA/EU and Swiss National Family Members Visa is designed for family members of an EU, EEA, or Swiss national (non-German) who wish to accompany or join their relative in Germany. Applicants under this category benefit from reduced documentation requirements and are exempt from paying the visa fee when traveling together with their EU/EEA or Swiss national family member.

Eligibility & Purpose:

  • Intended for spouses, civil partners (under the Civil Partnership Act 2004 or corresponding legislation), and children (under the age of 18) of an EU, EEA, or Swiss national.
  • Applicants must be able to demonstrate a family relationship with the EU/EEA or Swiss national through the appropriate official documents.
  • De-facto partners, fiancĂ©es, and boy-/girlfriends do not qualify as immediate family members under this category.

Processing Time:

  • Typical processing time is approximately 15 calendar days.
  • It is advisable to submit a complete set of documents well in advance to avoid processing delays.

Important Note:

  • If you intend to travel independently at any time, you must apply for a regular visa (business, visitor, or tourist), and the regular visa fee will apply.
  • The final decision on visa approval is made solely by the Diplomatic Mission, which may request additional documentation if necessary.

Your Visa, Our Priority – With our express appointment scheduling and expert guidance, your visa process is handled with ease.
