German ordinary passports: Syria advance visitor visa
German ordinary-passport visitors require a Syrian visa applied for through the competent Syrian foreign mission before travel.
- For an applicant resident in Germany, the current guidance identifies the Syrian Embassy in Berlin.
- Visa issuance is not always possible at Syrian land crossings; this does not establish an electronic or dependable arrival-visa route.
- This excludes Israeli-document restrictions, transit, work, residence, special documents, operational access and final admission.
