Are you planning a business trip to Germany? Many professionals in Hyderabad and across India trust NC Visas for quick, accurate, and hassle-free Germany business visa applications. We take care of everything, from preparing your documents to booking your VFS appointment, so you can stay focused on your work.
The Germany Business Visa (Schengen Type C) allows Indian nationals to visit Germany for up to 90 days within any 180-day period. You can use it for meetings, trade fairs, supplier visits, conferences, and signing contracts. This visa also allows travel to all 26 Schengen countries with one stamp, but it does not allow you to work in Germany.
This visa is for business owners, IT professionals, exporters, pharma professionals, startup founders, corporate employees, and consultants travelling to Germany for business purposes for less than 90 days.
Processing takes 15 to 45 working days after VFS submission. Apply at least 6 to 8 weeks before travel. During peak trade fair seasons (March to May, September to November) slots fill fast.
