For people planning on attending the openSUSE Conference 2019 in Nuremberg, Germany, from May 24 – 26, there are certain requirements necessary to receive a visa for those who are not a citizen of a Schengen country.
It’s a good idea to start thinking about getting your visa and this post summarizes the requirements.
Please note: the Travel Support Program has no provisions to cover the cost of a visa, so it’s the travelers responsibility for covering the additional cost.
For citizens who are not a citizen of a Schengen country, you may need a formal invitation letter that fully explains the nature of your visit.
An overview of visa requirements/exemptions for entry into the Federal Republic of Germany can be found at the Federal Foreign Office website.
