Applicants from the People’s Republic of Vietnam, China, and Mongolia need the APS (Akademische Prüfstelle/Academic Evaluation Centre). Please find all the necessary information as well as the foreign representation of your home country on the website of the Federal Foreign Office.
Please apply for a language student visa for Germany as early as possible. Processing and issuing can take up to 3 months.
