FAQ
Accommodation
We assist you with the registration at the citizens' office, the health insurance, a mobile phone SIM card, the semester ticket, a language course, an intercultural training, an orientation tour and two sight-seeing trips.
Please take note:
The relocation consultant also accompanies you to the citizen's office and assists you with the residence registration that must be made at the latest one week after arrival in Germany. In order to obtain this registration confirmation from the local authorities you need a housing provider confirmation (in German: “Wohnungsgeberbestätigung”) from your landlord. Without this housing provider confirmation TUMint is not able to help with the registration at citizens' office.If you need help with the VISA application process we recommend to also book the additional VISA service. A relocation consultant supports you to start the application process for a residence permit (visa validity is not sufficient in most cases). Therefore you will have to book an appointment at the foreigners' registration office in order to apply for the certificate of fiction/eAT (in German: elektronischer Aufenthaltstitel = electronic residence permit). Appointments are usually made at the end of the visa validity period and are accompanied by the relocation consultant.
Booking / Preparation
|
You can book the packages whenever you want, however, we recommend at least three months before your planned arrival in Germany. Especially the visa application process can take several weeks, sometimes even months. |
Arrival
Once you arrive in Germany we will pick you up at Munich airport or main train station and bring you to your accommodation.
Upon arrival you will receive a German mobile phone prepaid SIM card with a starting credit of 30,- €. We also give you your bank account documents. If already available we will assist you in printing your IsarCard Semester from a MVG machine (Münchner Verkehrsgesellschaft = Munich transportation company), so that you can use it right away for the public transportation in Munich.
The cost of the semester ticket "IsarCard Semester" of 201,60 € is included in the package and will be born by TUMint Student Relocation Service.
Further, the relocation consultant will take you to a little orientation tour close to your accommodation in order to show you the most important points of interest nearby.
At the latest one week after arrival in Germany the residence registration must be done at the registration office. The relocation consultant accompanies you to the citizens' office and assists you with the residence registration. In order to obtain this registration confirmation from the local authorities you need a housing provider confirmation (in German: “Wohnungsgeberbestätigung”) from your landlord. Without this housing provider confirmation TUMint is not able to help with the registration at citizens' office.
Additionally, you will have to start the application process for a residence permit (visa validity is not sufficient in most cases). Therefore you will have to book an appointment at the foreigners' registration office in order to apply for the certificate of fiction/eAT (in German: elektronischer Aufenthaltstitel = electronic residence permit). Appointments are usually made at the end of the visa validity period and are accompanied by the relocation consultant if you have booked the additional VISA service.
Bank account & banking matters
|
If you are from a non-EU contry you will need a so called blocked account at a German bank in order to apply for a visa. |
Miscellaneous
|
Most German embassies insist on two insurances: private travel health insurance and general German statutory health insurance. |
