Hi,

Recently I got Germany long term visa approval in India. I am yet to travel to Germany to start my employment. Now I would like to bring my wife and kid along with me. Can I apply for family reunion visa for my wife and kid without arriving in Germany?

Thanks

Yes, you can apply for a famlly reunion visa before your arrival in Germany - in fact, you could have applied for it together with your work visa.

Do you already have a place to stay in Germany?
