The Embassy of the Republic of Singapore in Germany<br />
Singaporean-German Chamber of Industry and Commerce<br />
The Embassy of the Republic of Singapore in Germany was established in April 1973 in<br />
Bonn. On 10 August 1999, the Embassy moved to its first premises in Berlin, which were<br />
located at Friedrichstrasse 200. Since 15 September 2011, the Embassy has been operating<br />
from its new Chancery located at Vossstrasse 17. The Embassy is part of the Ministry<br />
of Foreign Affairs (MFA), which conducts and manages Singapore’s relations with<br />
other countries. MFA promotes and protects Singapore’s national interests by working<br />
towards the enhancement of regional peace, stability and cooperation, the maintenance<br />
of economic progress and prosperity, and the consolidation and improvement of friendly<br />
relations with all countries.<br />
The political section in the Embassy serves to further the aims of our MFA by promoting<br />
exchanges and fostering closer cooperation between Singapore and Germany. The<br />
long-standing cooperation and relationship between Singapore and Germany is multifaceted.<br />
Our scope of work includes deepening our political, economic, defence and cultural<br />
ties through regular high-level visits and consultations at the political and working levels.<br />
The work of the section involves both cooperation with the federal government and the<br />
various state governments, with whom we try to reach out and build a strong relationship.<br />
Besides enhancing and facilitating the cooperation between the two countries at the bilateral<br />
level, we also work closely with Germany at various multilateral fora. To achieve<br />
these aims, the Embassy works hand in hand with our other Singaporean agencies based<br />
in Frankfurt, e.g., Contact Singapore, the Economic Development Board, International Enterprise<br />
Singapore and the Singapore Tourism Board. Together, we hope that our efforts<br />
will profile Singapore in Germany and help Germans better understand Singapore. Likewise,<br />
we also try to profile Germany and its 16 federal states to Singaporeans and help<br />
them better understand Germany.<br />
The Singapore Embassy in Berlin also has a consular section to serve the needs of overseas<br />
Singaporeans. The Embassy is assisted by our Honorary Consul-General in Stuttgart<br />
and our Honorary Consul in Hamburg. Besides providing Singaporeans with information<br />
and advice, our consular officers stand ready to render consular assistance to Singaporeans<br />
in Germany such as issuing overseas Singaporeans with emergency travel documents<br />
or contacting, notifying and liaising with their friends / next-of-kin when there is<br />
an emergency. For Singaporeans who have been arrested or imprisoned, our consular<br />
officers will ensure that due process under the German judicial system is accorded<br />
to them. In addition, the embassy’s consular section will assist with queries related<br />
to Singapore, process visa applications as well as provide notarial services (legalisation<br />
of documents).<br />
