Settlement at a fixed price.
The civitas preparation of your settlement permit application costs one clear amount: 149 €, one-off and known in advance. No hidden costs, no mandatory subscription.
You answer the questions in your language, we fill in the official form of your immigration office. You submit it.
What the same application costs elsewhere
The settlement permit is the same official form at the same immigration office. The difference lies in the effort, in the language and in the price.
An unlimited permit is an application that has to be right the first time. At a fixed price, not an hourly rate.
The law-firm figure is the classification from „Three routes“ further down this page; in an individual case it is higher. A law firm is right where a rejection, an appeal or a special case is involved. That is expressly not what we do.
One price, everything included.
Paid once, no follow-up costs, no mandatory subscription, 14 days right of withdrawal.
The official form of your immigration office, filled in with your answers, or guided through the online portal.
- Guided questionnaire, every field explained
- The official form of your authority, filled in
- Or: a guided portal pilot (online only)
- Document overview in the application
- Save and carry on later
- 14 days right of withdrawal
The statutory authority fee of usually 113 € is paid separately, directly to your immigration office, not through civitas. In special cases it is higher.
Official German becomes a finished application.
The settlement permit is the same official form whether you fill it in alone or with civitas. The difference is how much research, translation and gathering of proofs is left with you.
Three routes to the application.
All three routes end at the same official form. What differs is the effort, the language and the price.
- You work out yourself whether a form or an online portal applies
- In German, without translation and without explanation
- You research yourself which papers are required
- If a proof is missing, the request for it delays the processing
The research and the outcome are your responsibility.
- Guided questionnaire in six languages
- The official form of your authority
- Document overview in the application
- Fixed price, 14 days right of withdrawal
We take on the form and the language, at a price that is settled beforehand.
- Legal advice in an individual case
- Representation before the immigration office
- Sensible in the event of a rejection, an appeal or a special case
- Total fee from 550 €, considerably higher in individual cases
The right route when your case is legally contested.
Worth knowing before you start.
If your question is not answered here, write to us. We reply within one working day.
Are there further costs?
Not for the preparation, it stays at 149 € per application. Independently of that your immigration office charges the statutory fee; you pay that directly there.
How does the right of withdrawal work?
You have 14 days right of withdrawal from purchase. With your consent at checkout we begin the preparation immediately after payment; the right of withdrawal lapses as soon as your completed form has been delivered.
Before and after this application.
civitas accompanies the whole way. These pages belong to the same journey, each with its own fixed price.
Four packages for the naturalisation application. Settlement is not a compulsory step on the way there.
To the naturalisation pricesAs long as the limited permit runs, the renewal is the recurring step.

The questionnaire shows you, without payment, which route your immigration office uses and which papers are usually required. You only pay when you want the preparation.
