Frequently Asked Questions

Is the first call free?

Yes. Everyone gets a free 20-minute call. We find out what you need and explain how we can help. If you decide not to go ahead, there’s no obligation. If you do, you get a clear quote with no rolling costs or unexpected fees.

Which appointment should I book?

Book with the team for the thing you need most. Visas, permits, renewals, full relocation, life admin, family and company questions go to our relocation team. Flat searches go to our apartment search team. Health insurance, KSK, pensions and other insurance go to Ina, our licensed insurance broker. Moving here for the first time? The Full Relocation Package covers your permit, flat, registration and health insurance guidance in one appointment.

Are you immigration lawyers?

No. Expats In Wonderland GmbH is registered with Berlin’s Business Immigration Service. We prepare and guide your application and attend appointments with you. Where a case needs legal advice, our partner immigration lawyer takes it on.

Is the insurance advice free?

Yes. Ina is an independent insurance broker, so her advice is free for you and the insurer pays the broker. Handling your KSK application on your behalf carries a service fee, which we explain in your call.
