1. Visit visa
2. If you know exactly when your document would arrive, book your appointment. If not, don't take the risk as you may not be able to book another appointment in the next 3 months if you miss your original appointment.
3. You can check the german website yourself to see the available dates.

Thanks once again for your help.
I have contacted the organiser and they said the original documents will be sent today or tomorrow, they even suggested I proceed to book an appointment.
When I tried to book an appointment, it was telling me no available date, I learnt from the thread to check at midnight to get a date which I plan to do.
But my question now is:
1. Is it after booking appointment I'm going to fill the application form to print two copies?
2. Or I must fill the application form before booking appointment? Because I can't find the application form on their website.
Thanks in anticipation for your response.

You can fill the form any time. The link to fill the form is on their website...check very well.

Appointment date is your priority right now, I booked mine around 11pm nigerian time

You can fill the form and everything else afterwards

All the best.

I didn't know getting an appointment date will be an issue. I was only concerned in getting all my documents, fill the form and go for the interview.

You should’ve booked that date and then asked the German institution to mail the embassy and request for an earlier date on your behalf (hoping for the best). Your appointment will only keep shifting further if you don’t book an available date on time. You won’t find an earlier date from what you have seen.

having the same issues with a visa appointment in Germany please can anyone tell me how I can get an earlier appointment.
My school is resuming September 10th...
And available appointment date is 25th of October.
Although I have booked an appointment since July 21st but not an appointment date.

I didn't book the date because I thought it's of no use and have read you can't change an appointment date as you will have to wait for next six month.
I have sent mail to the organizers, I hope they could be able to assist and get me an earlier date.

How is this possible?
Can you book appointment without appointment date?

AyokunnuO:


Great response from you. We will be sleeping and waking up together as from now. Hope leavened already
Thanks.

Were you able to book an appointment?

We are very close to the ember months and a lot of people are trying to book an appointment at this time, therefore, the reason for the inability to secure a date with the embassy. So Sir, it's a general issues, just keep your hope alive and don't give up yet.

I think you should do the process all over or review what you filled.

Hi. Please I've sent you a PM. Could you please reply.

Ok bro.

I'll be attending a conference in Germany by November, a certain percentage of the financial aspect will be shouldered by by employer, while I handle the remaining part.

The problem is that I spoke with my HR and it was agreed that I will be issued the following documents

A Board Resolution
A No Objection Certificate
Recommendation Letter
Company Tax Cert
A Letter from my Line Manager

The problem is that I won't be getting the company's Account Statement. Infact i was told not to even mention it.

Second problem is that for personal reasons, I do not want to use my salary account (this is my main account) although I was told that they may not ask at the embassy as far as the company states that they are the ones sponsoring my trip. My HR has agreed to write in the NOC that the company is footing the bill's 100%.

Please take a look at both issues raised and advice me know how I can work around them.

Thanks man.

Thanks samreinvented once again.

I collected my original documents on Monday at the dhl office and mail has been sent to the embassy on my behalf for an earlier appointment date, I'm yet to hear from the embassy.

But I want to ask one more question.
While filling the application form I included my middle name too not knowing it's (former surname) that should be there, which I don't have any.
Should I just ignore it or fill another form?
If I fill another form will the previous one be automatically erased from their system?

I don't want to make any mistake concerning the whole process.
Thanks as I await your response.

The embassy will not give you any early appointment, if you don’t have one at all already. Also, the earlier your original appointment, the higher the chance of getting even earlier appointment. That’s why I asked you before to choose whatever date you find on their website and then tell your inviting company to mail the embassy on your behalf. The embassy will most likely not grant an early appointment based on the email you send to them as an individual (they’d just tell you none is available). But an email or call from the German company inviting you will carry heavier weight and will most probably give a positive result.

On the name.... whatever name you fill should conform with what is on your passport. If there’s a discrepancy with some of the other documents, you’d need an affidavit.

No serious solid company would give you their account statement. The documents they have given you is all you need. If in the introduction letter, your company is writing that they are footing the entire bill (and they are ready to still say that when the embassy contacts them for verification), then you are good to go.

Attach your salary bank statement, that’s one of the strongest documents to prove that you indeed have ties with this company that wants to sponsor you.

That is exactly what I did, i booked and the institution sent mail on my behalf to request for an earlier appointment date.


Also the 3 names on d form are the same as on my passport, just that when I checked the form well there is no (middle name ) rather (former surname). So I'm kind of confused because I have middle name and not former surname.

To be on the safe side, can I fill another application form to use and forget the former?

Alright, then you’d have to wait till they respond.

The given name column is supposed to contain your name as it is on your passport. The given name on Nigerian passports always shows the first name and middle name. That’s how you should put it on the form. If you have no former name, that place should be blank on the form. So, if there’s a mistake, fill another form.

Pls can someone help me with an email to send an appeal letter & documents to. I sent the attachments to info@lago.diplo.de but was not delivered.

Hello all;
Please how can one secure an earlier appointment date? The earliest date I am seeing for appointment is 6th Dec. Thank you.

Please house I need a answer here.
