Dear ladies and gentlemen,
We are happy to be open for you in our offices from 08:00 to 16:00 and can be reached by telephone from 08:30 to 17:00.
We would like to thank you for the good cooperation this year and wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Your DVKG team
Due to the further increase in travel volume, the DVKG would like to once again recommend that its customers apply for the required visas in good time when booking their trip - we recommend applying four weeks before departure, as the volume at the consulates and the processing time are also increasing accordingly.
An early application saves costs on the one hand, as there are no surcharges for particularly urgent processing and, on the other hand, guarantees the greatest possible certainty of receiving the visa applied for in good time before the start of the trip.
Of course, we are also still available for last-minute and urgent bookings.
