Welcome to our FAQ section!
Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions about our services.
Integration Courses & Eligibility
Who is eligible to participate in an integration course?
Integration courses are funded by BAMF and are aimed at immigrants who live permanently in Germany and speak little or no German. People without an obligation or entitlement can also participate as self-payers – please contact us.
Do I need BAMF authorization to register?
Not necessarily. Anyone with official authorization from BAMF, the immigration office, or the job center can participate at a reduced rate or free of charge. Self-payers can also participate, subject to availability.
How does registration work?
Registration takes place in person at our office at Bleichstraße 38a in Frankfurt.
You can contact us by phone or email in advance to arrange an appointment.
Unfortunately, we cannot offer online registration, as the BAMF regulations do not provide for this.
