Travel to Germany with Visit Visa

Requested from BI by K. Tee at 09:45 PM on Oct 20, 2021.
Purpose: For clarifications
Date of Coverage: 10/19/2021 - 10/20/2021
Tracking no: #BI-118476069869

Hello!

I would like to request what are the necessary documents for a visit visa holder traveling to Germany. I have the capacity to travel and my trip is sponsored by my partner. I would also like to know what are the grounds for deferring a trip. I have the Affidavit of support, roundtrip ticket, travel insurance, bank statements, with travel history, proof of savings and proof of relationship with my partner. The BI's offloading policies to international travelers (tourists) have been unclear and oftentimes considered biased. Where can I also complain if IO do not disclose their name.
