- Basic knowledge about the legal and social rules.
- Sufficient living space for oneself and family members living with the person (at least 12 square meters for persons over 6 years old, at least 10 square meters for persons under 6 years old).
Special conditions for certain categories of persons
- If the spouse or registered life partner has German citizenship, foreign partners can obtain a PRP after 3 years, provided they have a sufficient command of the German language.
- Parents of children with German citizenship can receive a PRP after 3 years of stay in Germany, if they have a TRP and regularly communicate with the child.
- Asylum-seekers and refugees must cover only 51% of their living expenses from their own income. Knowledge of the German language at the A2 level is sufficient. If a person speaks German at a level of at least C1, it is possible to obtain a PRP after 3 years of residence in Germany.
- Individuals with mental or physical illnesses or disabilities do not have to meet all requirements. Depending on the disability, they are exempt from certain conditions, such as ensuring their own means of subsistence, knowledge of the German language or payments to a pension fund.
