What this site does
Dewayz provides information and advice about routes for moving to Germany: assessing your circumstances, explaining how the routes differ, and helping you prepare an application.
Dewayz is not a public authority and is not part of the German government or its embassies. Only the responsible German authorities can grant a visa, a residence permit or citizenship.
No outcome is guaranteed, and no processing time at an official authority is promised.
The content on these pages
The content here is general information. It does not replace an assessment of your own case.
Immigration rules change. Each page carries the date its information was reviewed, and what the responsible German authority states takes precedence over anything written here.
Check the current rules with the responsible authority before you act.
Links to other sites
These pages link to official German sources. We do not control those sites, and responsibility for their content rests with whoever runs them.
