Germany

As an international exchange student in Berlin, you will need accommodation, insurance, and possibly a visa.
Find out about these aspects of your study abroad at HTW Berlin.

Visa

Depending on your nationality, a visa (student visa) may be required. The visa application procedure should be started as soon as possible after admission to your exchange program or study program. The German Embassies or Consulates in your country of residence issue visas. It is the student's responsibility to check if a visa is needed to enter Germany. We recommend that you visit the homepage of the German Federal Foreign Office and check the Visa regulations.
