🇩🇪 Germany Citizenship Test Preparation

Study materials, topic-based practice questions and full mock tests for the Einbürgerungstest (German naturalisation test), built to help you prepare with confidence — wherever you are in your journey to Germany citizenship.

About the Test

The Einbürgerungstest (German naturalisation test) is required for applicants applying for German citizenship through naturalisation (Einbürgerung), and is set by the Bundesamt für Migration und Flüchtlinge (BAMF) and your local Bundesland authority. It is a multiple-choice test of 33 questions, drawn from a public catalogue of national and state-specific (Bundesland) questions, with a pass mark that is widely reported as at least 17 out of 33 correct.

Life in the World is an independent educational preparation service. We are not affiliated with, and do not administer, the official test — our study materials, practice questions and mock tests are designed to help you prepare for it. Always confirm current requirements on the relevant government website before your test date.
