Hi

My wife (British) and me (south African) are looking at moving to Germany next year. Our initial plan was Ireland but she has family in Germany that convinced us t go there rather as they can help support us.

Should I apply for a "tourist" or "joining family member" visa? And will the surrinder singh process be the same once in Germany as apposed to Ireland? We are both currently in SA and plan on traveling to the UK next April for 2 weeks then Germany after that. We will be arriving together

Sorry if I am repeating any questions already asked in the forums.

Thank you

- Visa for the family member of a EU citizen
-- Field 21 in the application form mark other and write family member eu

In Germany
- register address for both at the local citizen office (Meldebehörde)
- register your stay at the local foreigner office (Ausländerbehörde)
