Foreign pupils who are not citizens of a member state of the European Union, so-called third-country nationals, do not require a visa for school trips to so-called Schengen states, but only single parents. a valid residence permit or a settlement permit and a valid passport of their country of origin or a German travel document for refugees, stateless persons or foreigners.
If a pupil does not have a valid passport from his/her country of origin or if he/she is only in the status of toleration, teachers of general or vocational schools in Bremen can apply for a so-called "Schülersammelliste" at the Migration Office for a class trip or a school trip to another European country, which replaces the actually required identification documents.
