Interesting. The website says:
Dieses Visum ist für Geschäftsleute vorgesehen, die Kunden besuchen,
Geschäfte tätigen, Marktstudien durchführen, an Messen oder
Ausstellungen teilnehmen möchten, und ähnliches.
(Google turns this into:
This visa is designed for business people who visit customers, do
business, market studies carried out, wishing to participate in trade
fairs or exhibitions, and the like.
)
I'm not planning to do any of this, so this visa is not for me.
just make sure you don’t go to bits-’n’-bytes, that could be construed as an
exhibition ;-)
