Please do your research well.
German Embassy is a accepting 6 months bank statement if you don't have blocked account. Secondly if your degree and university are fully recognised in Anabin(H+) you don't need IELTS and ZAB.

It's better you get clarification from German Embassy to avoid misleading information.

Hi, pls what can I go ahead with the application is my course of study isn't recognised on anabin but the degree is recognised and the university is recognised. Example

University of Ibadan H+
Bachelor's of Engineering H+
Industrial Engineering no result.

Can I still go ahead with the application and not wait for ZAB.

Thanks, please how do we convert documents to pfx to be able to attach our certificate that we want to do comparability for quote author=greatnayo post=133709810]

Go back to Zab Website and Login there. On the Zab website you will see the Login Button.[/quote]

You need to upload the credentials in pdf format not pfx. You can scan your documents in pdf or if they are in image format like jpeg, use an online converter to convert it to pdf. Just google online pdf converter and you will see several websites where you can convert it.

I will recommend you should go ahead and apply for the statement of comparability. It takes 3 months to get your certs evaluated, so apply ASAP.

Hi, with Zab, do I still need English language proficiency certificate like TOEFL or IELTS before I can apply (assuming I have proof of fund)?

Yes... There's a language requirement.

Hello. I applied for ZAB Comparability since September 2024. But every time ZAB sends me a message in my email that there is a missing document and I should go to my ZAB- BundID account to check what the missing document is, I cannot see any messages from ZAB in my BundID. I signed up with username and password since I don't live in EU and can't sign up with EID. But BundID states that when you sign up with username and password, you will not be able to see important and sensitive messages, which is why I can't see the messages ZAB has been sending and my application is still stuck. I have tried sending messages and emails but no positive answer yet. So to those that have successfully done their degree comparability with ZAB, how were you able to do it? Did you have this same challenge of not being able to see your messages on the BundID platform?

Hello, has anyone gotten AD or been interviewed here?

I never had this issue.

So after logging in with BundID, the browser is supposed to redirect to ZAB, however I found that my Firefox browser wasn't redirecting, so I couldn't see the message. Had to use Microsoft Edge browser and it worked.
So try changing your browser, use a different browser from the one you have been trying. I hope it works

Hello everyone, pls is there a WhatsApp group? I've started the process but there is very sparse information.
I have received my statement of comparability from ZAB, and I got an email asking me to upload my documents. However, I'm in Abuja where online application is not possible.
So my questions:
1. Do I fill out the form and submit physically to the German mission in Abuja?

2. In filling out the form there is a section for Reference, and it says for work visa it has to be an educational establishment/coy/organization.
Since I do not have a job there yet, what do I fill for that section?

3. What's the best provider to use for the blocked account?
Pls anyone who has done theirs or has details, do share !

National visas are not applied for in Abuja. Everything is done online. Submit your application and be on the waiting list.

If you're using SL, use your sponsor as the reference. The field is just a contact that the embassy can reach out to. It can be any establishment you've worked with previously

sussybae:

People have gotten approvals already. I know 4 going for interviews this week also

Please how long did it take to get your statement of comparability from ZAB? I mean the length of time it took for the whole ZAB process. Thanks.

Bro, abeg is there a particular platform where these kinds of jobs are listed?

Fairest4568:
I will give a quick advice for you to secure a secondary employment in Germany. I do not guarantee that it will work out for you but you can try it. Germany is in need of nursing assistants(care givers) and the adverts are increasing. If you can, apply as a care giver for part time or full time, for this opportunity card financing . BUT applying directly as a care giver for work visa will NOT really work because having the qualification is a requirement for the visa. But as a part-time job(for opportunity card) might work. So give it a try if you are finding it difficult getting jobs.

hi bro, mine is also simiar, my university is H+, bachelor in Science is H+ but i cannot find my course name, can i apply with that without ZAB?

damiflo:
Yes

They don't allow even those in Germany to walk into their office. The only fast process is for Blue card holders. It takes 2 weeks
