German Embassy Lists Requirements for Working Holiday Visa

The German Embassy in Paris has released a comprehensive list of documents necessary for foreigners applying for a Working Holiday Visa. Applicants must ensure that all documents are complete on the application day, as incomplete submissions will not be processed.

Required documents include two signed printouts of the online visa application form via the VIDEX system, two recent biometric passport photos, and a valid passport with at least three months of validity beyond the visa period. Additional documents include a Curriculum Vitae in German or English, proof of accommodation in Germany, a certificate of good conduct from the applicant's home country, and valid health insurance.

Applicants must also demonstrate financial stability by showing a minimum of EUR 2,802 for the first three months in Germany and funds for a return ticket. The processing fee is EUR 75, payable in cash at the embassy, and is non-refundable.
