the ABH in my town only required me to say that the person will be insured once he/she get here. If anything, the DE embassy might just issue a 3 months tourist visa, which is updated to the status you want at the local ABH when a person gets here. KV is not required? or am wrong according to the new law? KV Bescheinigung is required when applying for the relevant permit at the local ABH.

my 2 cents

You can tell your ABH that the person(s) will take insurance from their native. I told the ABH so, and they noted it down. But anyway you need to show proof of insurance when you apply for visa in the German consulate. My parents(India) tool a policy from the National Assurance Company.

Short-term visas like Tourist visas CANNOT be extended here!

Off topic: Even if not required by law( it IS in the above case) it is good to have one when you go abroad. And a year long policy for ppl like us, travelling outside Germany costs just 8-14 Euro, depending on your marital status)

"Short-term visas like Tourist visas CANNOT be extended here!"

they can. although it's not widely practiced, mostly 'cause the people involved - tourists - know absolutely nothing or they are the real tourists

the ones that know the rules, tend to get a right kind of visa from the very beginning

"the ones that know the rules, tend to get a right kind of visa from the very beginning"

What is this "right kind of visa" by the way. As far as I know :
1) if I invite some one to Germany that is possible only with Tourist visa.
2) Tourist visa is issued max. for 3 months.
3) Tourist visa is very difficult to extend. It is possible(as learned from some individual cases) but really very difficult to convince the ABH guys in order to get it extended.

So if you know any other kind of visa for tourists which can be issued for more than 3 months OR which can be extended later please share with us.

"1) if I invite some one to Germany that is possible only with Tourist visa."

you forget about business visa ;)

"2) Tourist visa is issued max. for 3 months."

yes

"3) Tourist visa is very difficult to extend."

is not difficult to extend it on 3 other months

is difficult to exchange it on a residence permit, but it's possible as well

very-very difficult to convince the guys from ABH that invited guy could not leave Germany in time as prescribed by their visa. but hey! you must make necessary applications in advance - d.h. as soon as person arrived here - and not when the guy did not leave Germany and sits without any valid visa waiting for a deportation.
