While citizens of many countries world-wide usually do not require a visa to enter the Federal Republic of Germany, citizens of other countries do. See the official information on Visa regulations from the German Federal Foreign Office. You will find an overview on visa requirements with a Table of countries whose citizens require/do not require visas to enter Germany. If you have questions on details of visa regulations or visa application, please contact your local German mission.
