Frequently asked questions

How long does it take?

Currently expect 12 to 24 months in Freiburg. If the authority fails to decide within three months without sufficient reason, an action for failure to act at the administrative court (§ 75 VwGO) can speed things up — I assess beforehand whether this makes sense in your case.

Can I keep my current citizenship?

Under current law, dual citizenship is generally possible — you usually do not have to give up your previous nationality. Whether special rules apply to your country of origin is something we clarify in the initial consultation.

How much does it cost?

For out-of-court representation in the naturalization procedure, I charge a flat fee of €1,800.00 including VAT. For joint family applications, €900.00 per additional adult and €300.00 per child are added. If an action for failure to act is filed, additional statutory fees (RVG) apply, which I will quote in advance. The initial consultation costs €226.10 in accordance with § 34 RVG. The initial assessment via chat is free of obligation.

I don't live in Freiburg. Can you still represent me?

Yes, representation is possible nationwide via online communication.
