If I am dependent on my aunt after my parents expired, do I need any adoption or legal documents to show that in Germany?

Yes, you will need legal documents to prove your dependency on your aunt for your Germany student visa application.

Typically, you may be asked for:
- Proof of Guardianship or Custody: A court-issued document naming your aunt as your legal guardian.
- Adoption Certificate: If legally adopted by your aunt, an official adoption certificate.

These documents must be properly notarized and, if required, translated and apostilled for use in Germany. Without official proof, German authorities may not accept your aunt as your sponsor or guardian.

Visa requirements are subject to change.
