Your husband will need to go to the town-hall of the city where he is living and obtain a formal obligation [affidavit of support] (Verpflichtungserkl盲rung) where he declares that he is able to support you. In order to get it he will have to show proof of a regular income (pay slips or bank account statements of the last three months) and proof of sufficient space for accommodation (house/apartment rental contract or ownership certificate). This formal obligation costs a fee of 鈧?5 plus a small fee between 鈧?.50 and 鈧?.00 for the authentication of his signature which may vary depending on the fee structure of the city of application.


Your husband will than mail you the document which you will have to attach to your visa application (original plus copy). The copy will be kept on file at the German Embassy/Consulate and the original will be handed over to you once your application has been favourably decided so that you may present it to the Feberal Border Protection Officer who is conducting the immigration procedures on your arrival in Germany..
