The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) can provide financial support for study visits to the Federal Republic of Germany for foreign academics if such a visit will benefit primarily the individual applicant. All subject areas are eligible.
Visits can be instigated by German academic institutions, diplomatic missions of the Federal Republic of Germany and Branch offices of the DAAD abroad. Individual application directly with the DAAD is also possible.
The DAAD supports study visits of up to three months’ duration.
The grant supplied by the DAAD is intended to cover subsistence in Germany and supplementary expenditure. The amount of the maintenance grant depends on the length of stay and the academic status of the applicant. No extra grant will be available for dependents accompanying the grant holder. In cases where the DAAD undertakes to pay travel costs, further details will be given in the letter of invitation by the DAAD. Ticket reservations made by the visitor himself cannot be reimbursed.
Health insurance cover is obligatory in Germany. The DAAD automatically takes out a combined health, accident and personal/private liability insurance policy for grant holders from certain countries. All grant holders are personally responsible for the costs of their insurance cover.
