Foreigners married to German citizens experience slightly easier bureaucratic processes in Germany, particularly regarding residency and citizenship applications. However, potential pitfalls remain, especially for marriages conducted abroad, which require acknowledgment and possibly translation for legal recognition in Germany. While registered partnerships for same-sex couples are recognized for family reunification, only marriages are valid for opposite-sex partners. Non-EU partners can apply for residence permits based on their marriage but must navigate the nuances of visa requirements depending on their home country's agreements with Germany.
Plenty of foreigners move to Germany for love - and hopefully, that love is strong enough to stand the test of not just time but also German bureaucracy.
If the non-EU partner has a passport from a country whose nationals enjoy visa-free access to Germany, they can come to Germany without a visa.
