About the Equatorial Guinean Embassy in Berlin
The Equatorial Guinean Embassy in Berlin is the official diplomatic representation of the Republic of Equatorial Guinea in Germany. It represents Equatorial Guinean interests and supports political, economic and institutional relations between Equatorial Guinea and Germany.
Diplomatic relations between the Federal Republic of Germany and Equatorial Guinea were established in 2010. Bilateral relations remain comparatively limited, although cooperation includes political dialogue, trade and selected economic activities.
Economic relations are closely connected to Equatorial Guinea's energy sector. Germany imports products including crude oil and natural gas, while German exports to Equatorial Guinea include machinery, industrial equipment, boats and beverages.
In addition to its diplomatic role, the embassy operates a consular section that provides consular services for Equatorial Guinean citizens and handles visas, passports, legalisations and other official procedures.
Visa Information
Citizens of Equatorial Guinea generally need a visa for Germany. Short visits normally require a Schengen visa, while longer stays for purposes such as employment, study or family reunification require the appropriate German national visa.
German citizens also require a visa before travelling to Equatorial Guinea. One option is to apply through the consular section of the embassy in Berlin. The embassy publishes separate requirements for tourist and other visa categories.
Equatorial Guinea also operates an official eVisa system. The electronic application can be completed online, and applicants upload the required documents and receive the visa decision electronically. The eVisa system is currently available to applicants of all nationalities.
The exact requirements depend on the purpose of travel. Tourist applicants may need to provide evidence of accommodation and other supporting documents. Travellers should therefore check the latest official visa instructions before submitting an application.
Consular Services
The consular section of the embassy provides a range of administrative and consular services for Equatorial Guinean citizens and other eligible applicants.
- Equatorial Guinean passport renewal and extension
- Consular registration for Equatorial Guinean citizens
- Safe-conduct and emergency travel documents
- Certificates and other official consular documents
- Legalisation of notarial and academic documents
- Legalisation of commercial documents
- Translation-related consular services
- Visa applications for travel to Equatorial Guinea
- Assistance for Equatorial Guinean citizens in emergencies or detention
The embassy maintains a consular register for citizens of Equatorial Guinea and their family members in Germany. Registration can help the consular section provide assistance when a citizen requires official support.
Requirements and fees vary according to the service requested. Applicants should therefore review the current instructions before submitting documents to the consular section in Berlin.
Appointments
The procedure for using the consular section depends on the type of service requested. Not every application requires a personal visit to the embassy.
The embassy currently states that applicants from Germany and several other European countries may submit certain visa and consular applications by registered mail. Therefore, an in-person appointment is not automatically required for every procedure.
Passport, document, legalisation and other consular matters may have different requirements. Applicants should contact the consular section or review the current instructions before travelling to Berlin.
