I'm going to Germany to study PhD. Can I bring my girlfriend?

Yes, but both parties must meet the conditions for studying abroad. According to the formal channels, it will be approved in China and then go abroad.

If you accompany a visa, there are many restrictions, which is very unpleasant.

Generally speaking, only the husband/wife who accompanied the reader to study for a doctorate or work in Germany can accompany the reader to apply for family reunion and stay in Germany as a family member. According to the German policy of accompanying international students, the accompanying person is not allowed to work formally.

Or recommend your girlfriend to apply for a school to come to Germany. You don't have to come as a companion. It's not that hard. However, you don't need to have a German foundation to accompany you, but if you go to college, you need to pass the DSH or TestDaF exam for 800 hours regardless of your identity application.

Accompanied by Germany (reproduced for reference only)

1. Is there any language requirement for accompanying students in Germany?

If you graduated from 2 1 1 university, there is no language requirement for hardware.

However, it is very simple to do a language test during the interview. When I signed the interview, I was asked several questions:

Do you speak English or German?

Is this your first visit to Germany?

(3) How long will it take?

2. Do I need a guarantee to accompany me in Germany?

Don't.

The German Embassy said that it would print the payroll for half a year.

But when I went to the interview, the interviewer didn't ask for it either.

My suggestion is that it is better to prepare. It is said that every interviewer needs different materials.

3. What materials are needed?

Marriage certificate, graduation certificate and degree certificate need notarization;

Half-year salary table, with ID card, salary card directly to the bank to print.

A letter from the company certifying that you work in this company. My passport was issued in my hometown, and my visa was issued in Beijing, so the company letter proves that I work in the local area. The visa officer said that a temporary residence permit is also acceptable.

It would be better if you could provide proof of leave without pay. The purpose is to prove that you have no tendency to emigrate. You can find the format of the letter on the Internet.

Insurance.

A rental contract in Germany. Make sure that you and your partner have a place to live when they arrive in Germany.
