Hi,

it is family reunion visa. As a spouse of a Blue Card holder you do not need to have German language knowledge.

Good luck

Dear Sir,

Appreciate your response.

I had written to the German Embassy as well parallely and they have responded back saying that I should apply for Long Stay Dependent Visa. I am confused now.

Would you know how is the Family Reunion Visa different from Long Stay Dependent Visa ? Can I work in Germany if I apply for either of the visas ?

Regards,
Richa

Hi Richa,

I do not know what you nean with 'Long Stay Dependent Visa'? Maybe we are talking about the same type of visa?

Please read the official FAQs about the Blue Card..

As a spouse of a Blue Card holder you do not need to proof basic knowledge of the German language and you can take any kind of job in Germany, without restrictions and minimum salary. In fact the conditions for a spouse are better than for the Blue Card holder himself.

Good luck
Detlef
