German Ambassy

Supposedly open at 8:30. Answering machine still picking up at 9;00. Anyone at the office...?

Lovely people and comfortable space, issuing a visa was a really smooth experience. There are lockers for your stuff when you go to appointment

Great experience, but they need to invest in card machines. It is not safe to carry 75 euro R1400 cash in our country.

Efficient compared to USA and Canada! Most unhelpful for South African citizens

We have only had very pleasant experiences with the Consulate and staff . They are very helpful and willing to assist with what they are able to do . As always , appointments are a must and having the required documents, original and copies at the ready helps on both sides .

I wish I knew the name of the lady I had my visa interview with. It turned out that I had completed an older version of the application form a bit silly that it was still available online at the time and instead of turning me away outright she had every right to, she took the time to first make sure that all my other documentation was in order in case there were more problems. After making sure that they were fine, she helped me setup a new appointment and showed me exactly how the new one looks. I'm really great full and appreciative of the kindness shown. It's almost time for the next appointment so I really hope everything goes smoothly I'm going over all my documents every night to be sure!

Very efficient and well organised. Book an appointment online and make sure you have all the correct paperwork and everything will go very smoothly and quickly. The staff are friendly and helpful.

I was lucky enough to have very pleasant interactions. I didn’t wait a long time, I was assisted by a very helpful and kind women. I was made to feel very comfortable and not rushed. So far all of my interactions with all the staff have been pleasant

As a German citizen I have had a disgusting experience with the German consulate in Cape Town. Their phone lines are disabled due to Covid yet they are working in the office, how does that make sense? Also they don't reply to emails.

Great experience. Very competent staff providing friendly assistance.
