Au Pair in Germany requirements for Non-EU citizens

If you are a Non-European Union national then you will need a visa or residence permit to be an Au Pair in Germany. The general visa requirements of Germany are:
  1. Age: 18 – 26
  2. Basic German knowledge (you have to present an A1 certificate)
  3. Au Pair contract
  4. Health insurance valid for the whole stay in Germany (your Host Family will pay for it, but you will need the documents for the visa application)
  5. Valid passport
  6. You can cover your visa and travel expenses
  7. Invitation letter (required for some nationalities)
  8. Motivation letter (required for some nationalities)
Contact the German embassy in your homeland to find out the specific requirements and make an appointment online. Some nationalities (for example US citizens) might enter Germany without a visa and apply for the German residence permit at the local foreign office.
Notice: The visa process might take between 4 to 8 weeks.
