International students need a National Visa for study purposes. This type of visa is issued when a longer stay (more than three months) is intended or if gainful employment is to be taken up.
It can only be issued for a validity period from three months to one year or for a longer period in exceptional cases. The validity period depends on the intended purpose and length of stay.
It primarily authorises a stay in Germany. The holders of a national visa, however, can move freely in the sovereign territory of all Schengen States, for a maximum of three months within a period of six months since the date of initial entry into the country. A national visa therefore also includes a Schengen visa at the same time.
It can generally be requested only from the German diplomatic mission in the official district of which the foreign national maintains his/her usual place of residence.
