Red Tape are the real heroes! Every time I find myself in a bureaucratic nightmare (often!), Kathleen and her team come in to save the day. Most recently, Elizabeth assisted me and I was so pleased to work with her. Truly professional and understanding. Thank you for making our lives all a little easier!

They helped me get my address registered in Munich. Worked really well!

Can only say good things, I thought I was unnecessarily punctual but Macy was there even before me! so we had a nice chat for half an hour before the meeting and everything was excellent.
Thanks a lot

Macy was really attentive and helpful. The meeting with Agentur was great, and Macy’s translation was crucial for the meeting’s success.

We booked a coaching session with Kathleen from Red Tape Translation and it was worth every Euro. My partner and I had a series of visa/residence permit/freelancing questions that had been weighing on us for weeks. It was difficult to find the right answers online as there are so many different sources and opinions. I emailed a series of questions ahead of time and Kathleen was able to clarify everything in detail and also share knowledge that only one would know by going through the experience. If you’re looking for clarity around German bureaucracy, Kathleen has been a huge help.

I’m so happy to have booked with Red Tape for my recent Ausländerbehörde appointment. Macy’s interpretation skills were so helpful, and she was a kind and reassuring presence throughout the whole process. It really took a weight off my shoulders to have her there, and she was lovely to talk to, as well. I will definitely use Red Tape for any future translation needs, and recommend their services to others!

The folks at Red Tape Translation are wonderful! I was able to navigate my registration process incredibly smoothly, and the team is very professional and well-informed. Highly recommend their services for anyone coming to Berlin who is still brushing up on their German, or just generally needs help with relocating.

I used Red Tape Translation during an interview for a residency card. Julia was on-time, professional and reassuring throughout the whole process. She made a challenging situation less stressful. The entire process with Red Tape was straight-forward, including online reservation, payment and confirmation for the appointment. I will definitely use Red Tape Translation again for similar services.

I had my first good experience at LEA Berlin when I was with Red Tape Translation. They know the system very well and give you good tips. I’m glad I reached out, it helped me to keep calm and feel so much better, it’s really nice to have someone on your side when you are dealing with kafkaesque bureaucratic jungle.

Kathleen was so helpful and patient with going through my documents to get ready for my German Freelance Visa appointment in the UK. She also gave me a list of accommodation providers for when I get to Germany. I recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much!

Catalina Curbishey, Berlin

Red Tape is the best! Kathleen is so professional, kind and knowledgeable and has been a great help to create my freelance business and apply to the KSK. I highly recommend her and her team!

Kathleen and everyone at Red Tape have been a HUGE help for me in navigating the immigration process from the U.S. to Berlin. I was able to ask a ton of questions before a visit to the German consulate and better prepare for my move. Once in Germany, Kim was awesome in assisting me during the anmeldung appointment. Definitely will use again!
