Why trust this

I have lived both sides of this move — more than once.

I grew up between India and Germany, went to school in India, and then built an academic and professional life in Germany. Along the way I dealt with the same things you are looking at now: Schengen and student visas, residence permits, registration, relocation, bringing family over, and eventually naturalization.

India2Germany exists because I kept being asked the same questions by friends, juniors, and strangers online. This is the structured, honest version of those conversations — built on lived experience, not sales scripts.

Questions

Honest answers, before you ask.

Do you guarantee that I will get a visa?

No, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Visa decisions are made by German authorities, not by us. What we do is help you prepare a strong, complete, honest application and understand the realistic odds and timelines.

Are you a lawyer or a registered immigration consultant?

No. India2Germany provides practical guidance and process support based on lived and researched experience. For formal legal questions we point you to qualified lawyers or accredited advisors, and can help you find them.

What does it cost?

Pricing will be shared when consultations open. Join the waiting list and you'll get the details first, with no obligation to continue.

I'm at the very beginning and feel lost. Is that okay?

Yes. Many people reach out before they've decided on a city, a course, or even a path. A first consultation is designed exactly for that moment, to turn a vague goal into clear next steps.

Do you only help with studying in Germany?

No. We cover studying, working, family reunion, visiting on a Schengen visa, and first steps for business or self-employment. Pick the closest option on the form and we'll take it from there.

Which languages do you work in?

We work in English, German (native speaker), Hindi, and Malayalam. We can help you understand German-language forms, official letters, and navigate communication with authorities in their language.
