No limits: The immigration and visa services of Anders Consulting Relocation Service Germany
“Sure, there are visa agencies everywhere. They provide any kind of visa. But, once you get to the stage of applying for the long-term stay in Germany, you find yourself completely alone with getting things done. That’s when the trouble begins in some circumstances: Documents are incomplete, diplomas are not recognized, proof of health insurance is insufficient.
Sometimes the embassies do not check everything properly and yet still issue a visa. That can for example mean that the applicant needs to get an Apostille certificate whilst in Germany. And as the application of an Apostille needs to be done in the home country this is no fun and can delay the application for months. That’s more than frustrating! Avoid such pain by using a professional partner with more than 25 years of experience.
And you can combine everything with us so beautifully: e.g. booking of temporary accommodation upon arrival, registration with the registry office, accompanied visit to the immigration office, orientation-tour in your new city, removal co-ordination and a lot more. Communication problems between the different service providers such as the visa agency, forwarding agency and relocation company are eliminated. Being a client of Anders Consulting Relocation Service Germany means that you have one contact person only – in over 100 destinations.
And you don´t have to worry about the extension of your electronical residence permit (“elektronischer Aufenthaltstitel” or “eAT”). We will contact you automatically and well enough in advance. You´ve got a Friend in Germany!”
