German passport holders need a visa to enter Cape Verde. The easiest option is the online pre-registration through the EASE portal (ease.gov.cv). Since 2019, Cape Verde replaced the traditional visa with an airport security tax (TSA) of EUR 31 for stays up to 30 days. Complete the pre-registration online before departure and pay the fee. You will get a QR code to show at check-in and on arrival.
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from entry. Bring proof of accommodation and a return ticket. If you skip the online registration, you can complete it at the airport on arrival, but lines can be long during peak season (November through March).
For stays beyond 30 days, contact the immigration police (Policia Nacional) in Cape Verde to apply for an extension. Longer stays for work or residency require a separate visa from a Cape Verdean embassy before travel.
