Internship in Germany! The Travel Planning

Before traveling to a foreign country, you want to be fully prepared. Here are little guides summed up just for you!

Get Ready for Your Internship in Germany!

When preparing your stay in Germany, it's important to gather all the required documentation and other travel necessities well in advance. In order for your stay to run smoothly check Medication, appropriate clothing, money/credit cards, and electrical adapters.

Documents

Visitors traveling to Germany are required to hold a passport that is valid for at least six months from your arrival date. While Americans visiting Germany for under 90 days for tourism or business purposes are not required to hold a visa, all other visitors must obtain a visa before entering the country. Check the German Embassy's website for current visa and entry conditions and additional information about visa requirements and application assistance.

Medications

Remember to take just enough medication to last the length of the trip, as the country has strict medication importation laws. Visit your doctor in advance of your trip to ensure that you have a prescription that will last for the duration of your travels. In warmer seasons, the prevalence of tick-borne encephalitis and Lyme disease increases in the high-risk areas of Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria, Hessen, Rhineland-Palatinate, and Thuringia. If you are visiting those areas or spending the majority of your visit outdoors, request a vaccination against tick-borne encephalitis in advance of your trip.

Clothing

Germany has a moderate climate, with four distinct seasons. Temperatures during the winter months average between 21 and 35 F, while summer typically sees temperatures in the mid to upper 60s F. So make sure to take warm winter gear or comfortable summer clothing. Pack a light rain jacket for any visit, as rain is a common occurrence year-round.
