Happy to join the Germany forum.

I’m interested in topics related to relocating to Germany, visas, bureaucracy, driver’s license conversion, the MPU process, and general expat life in Germany.

I know moving to a new country can sometimes feel overwhelming — from paperwork and Anmeldung to understanding how systems work in Germany. I enjoy learning about these topics and exchanging experiences with others navigating life here.

Looking forward to connecting, learning from the community, and hopefully contributing where I can.

Best wishes to everyone starting their Germany journey in 2026!

Hi EuroPathUser,

Welcome to the forum. Please feel free to post your questions about all aspects of moving to and living in Germany.

But I am puzzled by your mention of MPU (which is a psychological assessment of one's basic ability to drive - usually administered after several incidences of drunk driving or other dangerous road behaviour that led to temporary withdrawals of your driving license). This is not usually a topic for expats - general advice to avoid it: If you drink, don't drive. And if you drive, do it defensively and carefully!

By the way: Your profile says you are German (not a foreigner).

But you registered your account from Cameroon.

If that is incorrect, please edit your profile!
