About the Kazakh Embassy in Berlin
The Kazakh Embassy in Berlin represents the Republic of Kazakhstan in Germany and supports bilateral relations between Kazakhstan and Germany. Its work includes political dialogue, economic cooperation, trade relations and consular affairs.
Germany and Kazakhstan maintain important economic and political ties. Cooperation includes areas such as energy, raw materials, industry, investment and education. In addition, both countries maintain regular institutional contacts and support academic and cultural exchange.
Visa Information
Kazakh citizens generally require a visa to travel to Germany. Short stays normally require a Schengen visa, while longer stays for work, study, family reunification or other purposes require the appropriate German national visa.
In Kazakhstan, German Schengen visa applications are processed according to the applicant's place of residence. Applications are handled through the German Embassy in Astana or the German Consulate General in Almaty. The German missions currently use TLS as their external service provider for the submission of Schengen visa applications.
German citizens can travel to Kazakhstan without a visa for stays of up to 30 calendar days per entry. However, the total visa-free stay may not exceed 90 days within a 180-day period. A visa is required when the intended stay or purpose of travel falls outside the visa-free rules.
Consular Services
The consular section of the Kazakh Embassy in Berlin provides services for Kazakh citizens as well as selected services for foreign nationals dealing with authorities in Kazakhstan.
- Kazakh passport and travel document matters
- Citizenship-related procedures
- Civil registration matters
- Certificates and consular documents
- Legalisation and authentication of documents
- Selected notarial services
- Visa applications where a visa is required
- Emergency consular assistance for Kazakh citizens
Consular responsibility in Germany is divided between several Kazakh diplomatic and consular offices. Therefore, applicants should first determine which office is responsible for their federal state and place of residence.
Appointments
Consular procedures depend on the requested service and the responsible Kazakh mission. The official consular information for Berlin states that appointments cannot be arranged by email.
Applicants should check the procedure for the relevant service before travelling to the embassy. In addition, people living outside the Berlin consular district may need to contact another Kazakh mission in Germany because the embassy, branch office and Consulates General have separate regional responsibilities.
Diplomatic Missions between Kazakhstan and Germany
Kazakhstan maintains an extensive diplomatic and consular network in Germany. Its principal diplomatic mission is the Embassy of Kazakhstan in Berlin. In addition, Kazakhstan operates an Embassy Branch Office in Bonn.
Kazakhstan also maintains Consulates General in Frankfurt am Main, Munich and Hamburg. These career consular missions have defined regional consular districts and provide services to residents within their respective areas.
In addition, Kazakhstan currently has Honorary Consuls in Dortmund, Hannover, Magdeburg, Rostock, Saarbrücken and Stuttgart. Honorary consular offices usually offer a more limited range of services than the embassy or a Consulate General.
Germany is represented in Kazakhstan by the German Embassy in Astana and the German Consulate General in Almaty. Their consular and visa responsibilities are divided geographically within Kazakhstan.
