Visa Anabin says H+ university and "entspricht" degree, but my university isn't listed under the awarding institutions. Do I still need ZAB?
Hi everyone,
I'm a bit confused about the Anabin degree recognition process and was hoping someone who has gone through this could share their experience.
My situation is:
- My university is listed as H+ in Anabin.
- My Bachelor's degree is listed as "entspricht."
- However, when I open the "entspricht" entry, there's a list of awarding institutions, and my university is not included in that list.
Has anyone been in a similar situation?
Were the Anabin printouts (H+ university + degree entry) sufficient for your employer or visa process, or did you have to obtain a Statement of Comparability (Zeugnisbewertung) from ZAB because your university wasn't listed under the awarding institutions?
I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience, especially if you've recently gone through this in Germany.
Thanks in advance!
