Good day,
In the future, a Chinese visa application will be created via the portal of the Chinese consular provider (China Visa Application Service Center):https://www.visaforchina.org. The completed visa application is signed by the traveler and submitted to the Chinese consular provider with all documents as before.
There is a transitional period until the beginning of May 2019 during which visa applications will be accepted without being entered into the China Consular Provider portal.With Deutsche Visa und Konsular Gesellschaft, you can continue to submit your visa application for China in the usual way. You benefit from all the advantages of the electronic visa application as well as the storage of visa-relevant information in a data protection-safe environment. Take advantage of the many benefits offered by Deutsche Visa und Konsular Gesellschaft, such as the automatic selection of the correct submission location, the visa expiry reminder service and the digital passport photo service.
During the transition period, we will maintain the current process. We will inform you about the changeover in good time.

Good day,
The process of applying for and obtaining A1 decisions is a time-consuming one for the people involved, the government and the authorities. Those affected and associations have made representations to the EU and succeeded in reaching an agreement between the EU Parliament, the EU heads of government and the EU Commission that the costs should be reduced.
This has led to headlines that give the impression that an A1 certificate is no longer necessary.
This is not the case. Registration is an intention and an obligation to provide services within the EU/EFTA countries;to look for another way of documenting and testing the social security status of services within the EU/EFTA states. to be tested. Details are not yet known. This does not affect the obligation to document social security status when traveling to third countries with which Germany has concluded a social security agreement.

Good day,
The social security agreement regulates which social security law is to be applied in the event of a posting / business trip.
In practice, such agreements are relevant in the event of unforeseeable events such as illness and accident. The agreement regulates in particular the care of the posted worker / business traveler in the event of illness or following an accident at work.
The applicable social security law is verified with the Certificate A 1.The following table provides an overview of the countries with which the Federal Republic of Germany has concluded social security agreements and specifies the periods during which German legislation continues to apply when employees are deployed abroad:
The DVKG supports you in the application process for the A1 certificate. The consular advisors will be happy to answer any questions and provide suggestions.
