I am applying for an aupair visa nad the Auslanderamt now says I have to write a German exam, is it difficult? I have studied German for two years at university but that was a while back so i have no idea what will happen. Will they deny me the visa if i fail the exam?

The law says that you need basic knowledge of the German language for the au-pair visa. There are no standard regulations. Some consulates carry out an exam being composed of a longer conversation, others just asking one question. I think that you will pass the test if you had two years of study of German and exercise a little. Good luck!

@stier

There are some specific regulations for Au-Pairs and there are agencies which find/match au-pairs with the host families.

But it is kinda difficult for the foreigners who are living in Germany to invite au-pairs. One of the reasons of this au-pair program is to help the person who is coming as au-pair to develop her language skills. (in this case, German)

so, when you request a work-permit for your potential au-pair from arbeitsamt(which you have to do before you invite the au-pair). They will check whether you have sufficient means to host her and they will also check the common language which is spoken at your home. If your wife and you are both foreigners, then obviously you will not speak German at home and the arbeitsamt will not let you to invite the au-pair.. (not fair but this is the way it works..)

Regards,

Lacrima
