🇩🇪 Germany Schengen Visa
For Turkish citizens planning a short-term trip to Germany, the Schengen visa is the essential travel document that allows entry not only into Germany but also into other countries within the Schengen Zone. At Marsel Visa, we simplify the visa process by guiding you through every step — from document preparation to application tracking — with a professional and hassle-free approach.
✈️ What Is a Germany Schengen Visa?
The Schengen visa is a short-term (Type C) visa that grants access to Germany and other Schengen countries for up to 90 days within a 180-day period. This visa is suitable for purposes such as tourism, business travel, cultural events, and visiting friends or relatives. With a Schengen visa issued by Germany, travelers can freely move across 27 participating European countries without additional border control.
📌 Who Needs a Schengen Visa for Germany?
Turkish citizens holding a burgundy (ordinary) passport must obtain a Schengen visa to enter Germany. Those with green (special), grey (service), or black (diplomatic) passports can travel visa-free for stays not exceeding 90 days. First-time applicants are required to provide biometric data (fingerprints) as part of the Visa Information System (VIS). If fingerprints were submitted within the past 5 years, re-submission is not necessary unless otherwise requested.
📋 Application Process
Marsel Visa manages your application from start to finish. After an initial consultation, we review your documents and prepare a customized checklist based on your travel purpose and employment status. Once your documents are complete, we schedule your visa appointment and prepare your file according to Schengen standards. On your application day, our team ensures that your submission is smooth and complete. We also monitor the application status and inform you as soon as a result is available. If this is your first Schengen application, you will be required to provide fingerprints during your appointment.
📄 Required Documents for Schengen Visa
The application requires accurate and consistent documentation. Standard documents include a valid passport, biometric photos, round-trip flight reservations, hotel bookings, travel health insurance with at least €30,000 coverage, a visa request letter, financial proof, and documents reflecting your employment status. Depending on your individual case, additional supporting documents may be needed. Marsel Visa prepares a personalized document checklist and ensures everything complies with the embassy’s requirements.
🕒 Processing Time for Schengen Visa
Germany Schengen visa applications are typically processed within 7 to 15 business days. However, this duration may vary depending on the time of year, the complexity of your application, and the workload of the German consulate. To avoid last-minute stress, we recommend applying at least 4 weeks before your intended travel date.
