Germany ETIAS: Requirements and costs
iVisa
3 min read
Updated on Jan 23, 2024

Being one of Europe’s most important countries, Germany is simply the best option for travel that one cannot overlook. Today, this country is an example for many tourists worldwide willing to enjoy delicious traditional food or explore fascinating landscapes and cosmopolitan cities.

Fill me in

If you want to be one of those tourists, you should know the new requirements to explore Germany. In the next few years, visitors from eligible countries will have to present the new ETIAS visa waiver to enter any Schengen country including Germany**. You will be able to apply for your ETIAS 100% online.

That means that you will have the chance to choose to do it on your own, but if you prefer an easier process, use our handy platform to get your ETIAS without leaving your comfortable home.

Required documents for the ETIAS application

You won't need a lot to submit your application, making the process easy and quick:

  • A copy of your valid passport.
  • Your personal information, such as your birthdate. We will use this info to complete the forms required by the government. That includes some questions about your health status.
  • Your email address on which you will receive your Germany ETIAS confirmation.
  • A valid payment method that can be your credit/debit card or PayPal account.

The best part is that it won’t take more than ten minutes to complete, and you can do it from your smartphone or tablet with our handy app!

What is the Germany ETIAS visa waiver?

The ETIAS is an electronic document the European Union will implement to safeguard their borders from any possible security concerns. The Germany ETIAS will be linked to your passport electronically, so it will show up in the system as soon as you arrive.

Your ETIAS travel authorization is valid for three years or until your passport expires - whichever comes first. It's for short-term stays: a valid ETIAS travel authorization entitles you to stay in the European countries requiring ETIAS for up to 90 days within any 180-day period.

Is the Germany ETIAS the same as the Schengen Visa?

No, it is not the same. The Germany ETIAS visa waiver is a document for people who are exempted from presenting a visa. It is obtained online.

The Schengen Visa is a visa required for those citizens whose countries do not have visa exemption agreement with the European Union. The application usually includes an embassy visit and interview.

We can help you get the Schengen Visa quickly with our simplified process. As soon as ETIAS is implemented, we'll update this page and can guide you get your visa waiver too.

How much does the Germany ETIAS cost, and how long do I have to wait?

The European Union hasn’t deployed the Germany ETIAS yet, so **we don’t have information on the exact price. Most likely, it will cost between €10-15.

When applying through us, we offer the following processing options:

  • Standard Processing: It is the most affordable alternative we offer, for those who have booked their trip far in advance.
  • Rush Processing: A straightforward way to obtain your document, for an extra fee.
  • Super Rush Processing:: You receive your Germany ETIAS ASAP for an express fee.

Here are all the countries you can visit with an ETIAS visa waiver:

Schengen countries:

Austria Belgium Croatia Czech Republic Denmark Estonia Finland France Germany Greece Hungary Italy Latvia Lithuania Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Poland Portugal Slovakia Slovenia Spain Sweden

European Free Trade Association (EFTA) on Schengen Agreement:

Iceland Liechtenstein Norway Switzerland
