What is specific to Germany

Germany runs Pakistani intake through TLScontact, a third centre operator, with its own portal and its own fee.

Appointment queues for Germany are among the longest of any Schengen mission in Pakistan, so start earlier than you think you need to.

How we prepare the file

We run your documents against the pattern of problems we see on Germany files: dates that disagree between flights and accommodation, a bank statement missing the branch stamp on one page, photographs outside specification, and insurance wording that does not cover the right territory. Each of those is fixed before submission rather than discovered at the counter.
