About the Kosovar Embassy in Berlin
The Kosovar Embassy in Berlin represents the Republic of Kosovo in Germany and supports bilateral relations between Kosovo and Germany. Its work includes political dialogue, economic cooperation, cultural relations and consular affairs.
Germany and Kosovo maintain close political and economic relations. Germany has supported Kosovo's institutional and economic development for many years, while cooperation also covers trade, education, migration and regional stability.
The embassy is part of a comparatively extensive Kosovar consular network in Germany, reflecting the strong personal and social connections between the two countries.
Visa Information
Citizens of Kosovo holding a biometric Kosovar passport can travel to Germany without a visa for short stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period. This visa-free regime has applied since 1 January 2024 and covers purposes such as tourism, family visits and business trips.
The visa exemption does not generally permit long-term residence or regular employment in Germany. For stays exceeding 90 days or for purposes such as employment, study or family reunification, applicants normally need the appropriate German national visa or residence procedure.
German citizens can also enter Kosovo without a visa for stays of up to 90 days. Longer stays require the appropriate residence authorisation from the Kosovar authorities.
Travellers should also be aware of Kosovo's registration requirements for foreign nationals and verify the current entry and residence rules before travelling.
Consular Services
The consular section of the Kosovar Embassy in Berlin provides a range of services for citizens of Kosovo living in Germany. Some procedures require applicants to appear personally at the embassy or another competent Kosovar consular mission.
- Biometric passport applications and renewals
- Kosovar identity document matters
- Citizenship-related procedures
- Civil registration services
- Birth, marriage and other civil-status matters
- Travel documents
- Certificates and selected document services
- Consular assistance for Kosovar citizens
For example, applicants for a Kosovar biometric passport must generally appear in person at the diplomatic or consular mission. Requirements differ depending on the applicant's age and the particular service requested.
Appointments
Appointments for diplomatic and consular missions of the Republic of Kosovo can be arranged through the official eKosova appointment service. Applicants select the responsible embassy or consulate and the consular service they require.
An advance appointment is generally required for regular consular services at the Embassy in Berlin, except in certain emergency situations. Applicants should also verify which Kosovar mission is responsible for their place of residence before booking.
Diplomatic Missions between Kosovo and Germany
Kosovo's principal diplomatic representation in Germany is the Embassy of the Republic of Kosovo in Berlin. Germany is divided among several Kosovar consular districts, so residents may be served by another mission depending on where they live.
Kosovo also maintains Consulates General in Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Munich, Frankfurt am Main and Stuttgart. These career consular offices provide services within their respective areas of responsibility.
Germany is represented in Kosovo by the German Embassy in Pristina. The embassy is responsible for diplomatic relations with Kosovo and provides German consular and visa services.
