Residency or citizenship status defines the rights of foreigners in Germany. Non-resident visitors include those exploring the country for up to 90 days, with certain non-EU citizens enjoying visa-free travel. However, the 90-day rule limits their stay, necessitating a longer-term residence permit for extended stays. Non-EU nationals without such privileges must apply for a visa regardless of the visit's duration. EU citizens face fewer restrictions but still must follow bureaucratic processes for permanent stays. Visitors with European Health Insurance Cards can access immediate healthcare services in Germany.
Citizens from several non-EU countries benefit from visa-free travel to the Schengen area, allowing them to visit Germany for up to 90 days without a visa.
Non-EU nationals without visa-free access must obtain a visa for any visit to Germany, regardless of the length of stay, even for short holidays.
