There is some risk to your security in Germany due to the threat from terrorism and we advise caution.

Terrorism
The German Government remains concerned about the possibility of terrorist attacks in Germany.  In December 2012 the German Interior Ministry urged heightened vigilance from the public following the discovery of an explosive device at Bonn Central Station.

New Zealanders in Germany are advised to be security conscious at all times and monitor the local media for any information on potential threats to safety.  We advise you to follow any advice issued by the local authorities.

General travel advice
New Zealanders travelling or living in Germany should have comprehensive medical and travel insurance policies in place.

New Zealanders in Germany are encouraged to register their details with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
