Visa Application Process and Cost Considerations
The German job seeker visa typically requires proof of sufficient funds for your stay, health insurance, and a formal job offer or a clear plan to secure one. While specific visa fees can vary, expect initial application costs to be manageable, potentially ranging from KES 20,000 to KES 50,000, excluding potential translation or certification expenses. Securing professional assistance can help avoid costly mistakes. Budgeting for living expenses in Germany is also crucial; initial accommodation and daily costs might range from KES 150,000 to KES 300,000 per month, depending on the city.
