Loved by people who passed
Real stories from learners who walked into their Einbürgerungstest and passed — with GermanPass as the reason it finally clicked.
“The Bundesland-specific questions scared me most. GermanPass had every one of them — I passed without a single nervous moment.”
“German isn't my first language and the wording worried me. GermanPass's clear explanations were the reason it finally clicked.”
“I booked the test the day I hit 30 out of 33 on GermanPass. Walked in, recognised every question, done.”
About the Einbürgerungstest
The Einbürgerungstest is a test of 33 multiple-choice questions — 30 general questions and 3 about your federal state (Bundesland). You need 17 correct within 60 minutes to pass. Every question comes from the official public catalogue of 300 general questions (plus 10 per federal state) published by the BAMF. There is no essay and no spoken element — it is entirely multiple choice.
