The temporary biometric Clinic for Germany-Schengen visa has closed, after providing visa facilitation services for 5 days.

The purpose of the clinic was to ease the difficulties Maldives face while applying for Visa to travel to Germany, including those participating in Internationale Tourismus-Börse Berlin (ITB) Fair in March 2019. The clinic was opened to operate for two days, however, due to increased demand, the services provided by the clinic were extended for three additional days. A total of 118 applicants processed their biometric applications from the clinic, according to Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The Biometric Clinic was organised by the Embassy of Germany to the Maldives with the assistance from the government of Maldives and the Maldives Marketing and Public Relations Company (MMPRC).
