Visa Application Fees
In order to apply for a visa, you will have to pay a visa fee and a service fee.
- Visa fee - collected for the German Mission;
- Service fee - collected for the processing of your visa application at TLScontact.
PAYMENT FOR SERVICE FEES AND EXPRESS COURIER RETURN
You will need to pay a service fee to use the visa application centre, and purchase Express Courier Return to receive your passport back after a visa decision has been made. You can pay for this service at our centre TLScontact in Ebene. You need to bring a debit/credit card along with you for payment on the day.
Attention: Payment of the visa fee and the service fees do not give any guarantee or right that a visa will be granted. The visa fee and service fee are both non-refundable and non-transferable if the visa application is denied by the staff of the German Mission or if the applicant decides to withdraw the application.
