Are the visa acceptance rates good for Canada and Germany currently?
31 Jul 2026 · Answered by Swastika Ghosh · 1 min read
It depends.
Canada: Visa acceptance rates for Indian students have dropped, with refusal rates reaching around 74% in 2025. This is due to stricter immigration policies and a national cap on study permits.
Germany: Acceptance rates remain higher, with approval still above 80% for Indian applicants, though there has been a slight increase in rejections due to more rigorous checks on documents and financial proofs.
Visa policies and acceptance rates are subject to change.
