Foreign pupils who are not nationals 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 a valid residence permit or settlement permit and a valid passport from 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 their country of origin or only has the status of tolerated stay, teachers at general or vocational schools in Bremen can apply for a so-called "pupil list" from the Migration Office for a school trip or school excursion to another European country, which replaces the ID documents actually required.
