Integrationskurs

The Integrationskurs is an integration course provided by Germany to help foreigners adjust to life in Germany. The Integrationskurs is intended to prepare noncitizens to become legally and socially accepted as citizens by learning the German language and the legal system, politics, culture, society, and history of Germany.

According to the legal definition in Section 43, Paragraph 2 of the Residence Act, the Integrationskurs supports the integration efforts of foreigners through an introductory offer for integration to successfully teach them the language, the legal system, the culture, and the history of Germany. Foreigners are to become so familiar with the living conditions in the federal territory that they can act independently in all matters of daily life without the help or mediation of third parties.

The Integrationskurs was introduced in 2005 as part of the Immigration Act. The ordinance determines the implementation of the Integrationskurs for foreigners and late resettlers (Integration Course Ordinance - IntV).
