How to apply for a residence permit

If you would like to apply for a residence permit or settlement permit (or extend your existing one), please use the online application: www.tuebingen.de/eat

Once the application has been checked, the employees will contact you by email and give you an appointment to take fingerprints etc.

Picking up the electronic residence permit

Your electronic residence permit (eAT) is usually ready to pick up four to six weeks after we have ordered it. During this time, you should also receive a PIN letter (see example) for the online ID function by post.
