Gather the required documents/follow the procedures here, including the visa fee.
Submit the information that you gathered in Step 2 to the consulate that you located in Step 1.
Depending on the consulate you might be required to make an appointment to apply in person. Your consulate website will have details on whether you will need to make an appointment in order to submit an application or if you can apply by mail.
Congratulations! After a period of waiting, the German Consulate/Embassy will give to you your brand new German visa.
Don’t get sick! Check vaccination requirements here at the CDC.
