🇩🇪 Germany Business Visa
If you are a citizen of the Republic of Türkiye looking to attend a trade fair, participate in a business meeting, or establish commercial relations in Germany, you are required to obtain a business visa. Marsel Visa provides professional support at every stage of this process, from document preparation and appointment scheduling to application tracking and passport delivery. The Germany Business Visa falls under the short-term Schengen category (Type C) and should only be used for commercial purposes such as meetings, contracts, or business-related travel.
✈️ What is a Germany Business Visa?
The Germany Business Visa is a short-term visa issued based on an official invitation letter from a company or organization based in Germany. The purpose of travel must strictly be commercial—such as attending meetings, conducting market research, or making business deals. The visa cannot be used for tourism or family visits. Any application submitted under an incorrect visa type is likely to be rejected. At Marsel Visa, we ensure that your application is aligned with the correct visa category, avoiding costly errors.
📝 Application Process for Germany Business Visa
The first and most critical step is obtaining a formal invitation letter from the company in Germany. This letter must be written on official company letterhead, signed and stamped by an authorized representative, and must clearly state the purpose of your visit, duration, and who will be financially responsible. In addition, your employer in Türkiye should also provide a letter stating your role, travel purpose, and business relationship. Marsel Visa assists in ensuring both letters meet the required consular standards.
📋 Required Documents for Germany Business Visa
In addition to the standard Schengen documents, business visa applicants must submit documents that verify the commercial nature of their trip. These include the German company’s invitation letter, your employer’s authorization letter, the company’s tax certificate, signature circular, trade registry gazette, and other corporate documents. Additional documents such as your last 3-month bank statement, SGK social security records, round-trip flight bookings, hotel reservation, and travel health insurance are also required. All documents must be current and mutually consistent.
⏳ How Long Does a Germany Business Visa Take to Process?
Business visa applications are typically processed within 7 to 15 business days. However, this period may vary depending on embassy workload, holidays, or the completeness of your documents. Marsel Visa reduces the risk of delay by submitting a flawless application. We also inform you about options like priority appointment booking or express processing when necessary.
📌 Who Needs to Apply for a Germany Business Visa?
Citizens with ordinary (Bordo) Turkish passports must obtain a visa for business travel to Germany. Citizens with green (Special), grey (Service), or black (Diplomatic) passports are visa-exempt for trips up to 90 days. First-time Schengen applicants must provide biometric data (fingerprints) as part of the VIS system. If fingerprints were submitted within the last 5 years, you may not need to repeat the process.
