Hello,
I am a EU Blue Card holder and invited my family on FRV. Now they also have the residence permit based on my EU Blue Card with Type of permit for my Wife and Kid is : AUFENTHALTSERLAUBNIS.

30 ABS. 1 S. 1 NR. 3G VAR. 1 AUFENTHG
Remarks for my KID in RP:

Hello Hemant, thank you for reaching out to us.
Generally, one cannot leave Germany for longer then 6months. If you leave Germany longer than 6months you will loose your residency. This regulation applies to all residency titles. There are some exceptions when it comes to the permanent residence.
You can find more detailed information here, please note the website is in German, translating the page might help you: https://www.berlin.de/einwanderung/aufenthalt/erloeschen-von-aufenthalt…
The 6month rule also applies to your family members.
If you have further questions, please let me know
Best wishes
Hello @yara
Thank you for the reply,
I can see the below :
Here its mentioned 12 months for EU Blue Card and EU BC holder dependents who hold residence permit.
Is this something different then my condition?
Hi Hemant,
apologies, you are right, my first answer of 6months only applies for other residence titles.
With an EU Blue Card you and your family members can leave for up to 12months. This is because your family members have come through family reunification and you hold the Blue Card.
Before traveling please make sure that the residency is valid throughout the travels.
Best wishes
Thank you so much @yara
