Dear Madam/ Sir,
I hope this email finds you well, then I need the following informations:
Now, I have (Flüchtlingseigenschaft) status in Germany and would like to book Visa Appointments for my family members at the German embassy based in Tehran because my family live in Iran since 09 February 2022.
The below is the information of my family legal status in Iran:
1- They had three months visa and extended three months more. It means they lived there for six months with official visa.
2- After their visa expired, they registered by government entities ( دفتر کفالت) and have received an ID by the name of ( سرشماری). Now they are living there by these ID which help them to have legal status.
Therefore, my question is as follows:
With such residency status, where or in which link, should I apply for visa appointments for them?
I appreciate your regular and continued assistance.
Best Wishes
Dear Madam, first thank you so much for such detailed information. I checked the Embassy web site as well. One thing more, since Feb 2022 , my family live in Iran, But my question is as below:
They had three months visa and extended three months more. It means they lived there for six months with official visa.
2- After their visa expired, they registered by government entities ( دفتر کفالت) and have received an ID by the name of ( سرشماری). Now they are living there by these ID which help them to have legal status.
Now, with such legal status , is it possible to apply at Tehran Embassy? Such legal status is not clear in the Embassy website.
May I have a phone number from your office to contact directly and clarify the issue better?
Thanks for regular assistance.
Regards
Dear A.Navid, yes if your family has stayed in Iran over 6 months via a visa and now a residency as you mentioned they should book the appointment via the embassy in Tehran. You can find the link here: https://service2.diplo.de/rktermin/extern/choose_category.do?locationCo…
If you let me know where in Germany you are I can also help you find an advice center that can help you with the family reunion procedure if needed.
