Good Day,

My parents are german citizens and currently living in Germany. My daughter is under 18. Can her grandparents in Germany sponsor her through the family reunion category. Thank you

Josef

Dear @abuzous  , thank you for reaching out to us. Do you mean if grandparents can apply for family reunification for a grandchild? German immigration law focuses primarily on direct family members for family reunification. This typically includes spouses and minor unmarried children. Grandparents do not fall into this category: https://handbookgermany.de/en/family-reunification-for-immigrants#faq_7… If you have any further questions, please let us know. You can also ask for advice in the forum, e.g. see if others have had similar questions or topics and write your questions below + tag the person (with @). Best Barbara

Dear Barbara @Barbara__Community_Manager , thank you for getting back. Yes, my question is about if grandparents can apply for family reunification for a minor unmarried grandchild.

Thank you
