By Admin

An important information stated on VFS Global(Germany) website tells that the Indian passports that have Passport number "perforated" on all pages of the passport will NOT be accepted for German VISA application processing. It also states that, effective from 19-February-2018 Indian passports with perforated/punched-through on all the pages(first to last page) will not be accepted for German visa processing at the German VISA application centre in Bangalore, Cochin, and Trivandrum. 

Which passport will be accepted?

The website also shows us this image(illustration) of a passport, which would be accepted at this time. 

passport, german visa



What should you do if you have a perforated passport?

The same link tells us that, for further clarification please do contact the local Government of India Passport office.

Which country is better? Germany VS Singapore | Masters studies | MS course

By Admin
Germany VS Singapore Deciding a path to choose, when you have lot of options in hand is very difficult. When you are applying for Masters studies, there would be a lot of confusion in terms of which country to apply for and there was a question in Quora regarding Germany VS Singapore. Trust me, even I was in the same dilemma when I wanted to pursue my Masters course. Let me throw some light on the analysis that I had done, based on my experience in Germany(Masters studies) and my observations from my friends who are studying in Singapore. Climate:   Are you a person who likes Winters to be cold(around 0 degree Celsius)? Are you a person who likes to just have 2 months of Summer? If you’re from a tropical country, then there is high possibility that you will not like Germany’s climate, but on the other hand Singapore has similar tropical conditions, which makes it easier to adapt.  Winner:  Singapore Course duration:  Most of the courses...

HOW TO FIND A PART-TIME JOB IN GERMANY?

By Admin
Every student doing their Masters are eager to know about the Part-time job opportunities, which is why I wanted to write a separate post for this topic. Who doesn't want some extra money, apart from their usual 8040 euros. To make it simple, I am confining it into two types. The jobs based on: Academics (In the University) Non-academics Academics: Before searching for jobs outside, first look into your university website properly. Because, there is a high probability that you will find a HiWi job in your university under some department. But, from my experience it is kinda tough to get a HiWi job because, the professor who is going to give the job, should be convinced that you are really capable of doing the certain task and moreover, he should also convince the particular Company which is funding that project. You can look into various companies like Bosch, Audi, Volkswagen, etc., or companies related to your corresponding field, where you can f...
