Hello,

I have an offer from a Berlin company and they would be applying for my bluecard. I am here in Singapore on work permit for more than 2 years , living with my wife and 2 kids. Is it possible I can apply for national visa along with my family from Singapore? I wanted to apply for my family visas from here in Singapore because average waiting time for family reunion visas in my homeland is 12-18 months which is much more

Does anyone has similar experience or know the process? Looking forward to hear from all of you.

Thanks,

As far as I know, it is possible.
But for a definitive answer please contact the German embassy in Singapore!

Hi I am also applying for National Visa from Singapore. I am originally from Pakistan and currently in Singapore on EP. The required docs are

I am still a bit unclear on blue IC part since this is only required for Employment Visa and EU Blue card. Rest all visa categories accept EP, DP and Blue IC.

As Beppi says, if you and your family members are long term resident (means you hold the residence permit of long term stay visa) of another country than your home country, then you can apply from the consulate in the country of your residence.
