VFS Global to Operate Germany Visa Application Centres in 36 New Asia Pacific Locations

Germany has awarded a regional visa services contract to VFS Global.

As per the contract, VFS Global will operate Germany Visa Application Centres in 36 new locations across 14 countries in the Asia Pacific region.

Residents of Brunei, Fiji, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Papua New Guinea, Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines, P.R. China and Thailand will soon be able to apply for Germany visas through VFS Global.

VFS Global is expected to start operations in the new Visa Application Centres during the first quarter of 2019.

The People's Republic of China alone will see the addition of centres in 15 cities, further strengthening access to Germany's visa services across the country.

In addition to these facilities, VFS Global will also offer a Mobile Biometric Service in 24 locations throughout the region. The Mobile Biometric Service enables applicants to submit their documents and biometric information from a location of their choice, e.g. from their home or office, eliminating the need to visit a Visa Application Centre.

Chris Dix, VFS Global's Head of Business Development, said, "VFS Global currently operates 59 Germany Visa Application Centres across 16 countries - this new contract will take the total number of countries which have centres operated by VFS Global to 30. We are confident that applicants in the new countries of operation will appreciate the better accessibility and convenience of the visa services offered."
