抵達杜賓根之後...那些該做的事和超早的下班時間|Things you need to do upon arrival in Tübingen

by - 10月 23, 2018

由於本人一片空白來到杜賓根、加上德文不好、資訊又很瑣碎
導致我在各處疲於奔命
決定寫一篇大整理文造福大眾 (順便為明天語言班選課祈福><)
It is more than complex to settle down in Germany as a non-EU exchange student.


以下按照我覺得重要的先後順序排列,每一個任務完成之後應該要拿到的東西有特別標誌起來。
Important documents you should get from each office are colored.
***務必注意各個機關的開放時間,中午關門的、一個禮拜只開兩天的比比皆是
***Notice the opening time of each office. It is common that it only opens till noon or only two days a week.

▲ 宿舍組報到 Get your dorm contract

要入住宿舍要先前往位於 Fichtenweg 5 的宿舍組找 Frau Fischer報到
付了宿舍押金400歐跟拿到宿舍合約之後,她會告訴你要去哪裡找房東拿宿舍鑰匙。
**在宿舍組是拿不到鑰匙的!**
由於我當天接近四點才到,房東快下班了,於是我被強迫送上計程車去宿舍...
短短十分鐘要價15歐啊ˊˋ
First you need to go to dorm office at Fichtenweg 5 and find Frau Fischer.
After paying EUR 400 deposit, you'll get your dorm contract.
Then she will tell you where you can find your hausmeister and get the keys.
** you can't get the keys in the dorm office!**
I arrived there at about 4, so I was forced to take the taxi to find my hausmeister...
It costed 10 euros for only ten minutes :(

▲ 找房東 Hausmeister

宿舍組會通知你的房東你要去找他,所以我到的時候房東已經在宿舍樓下等我了
他會簡單的介紹房間內有哪些用品,哪些是已經損壞的,然後兩個人在那張確認表上簽名
總共會簽兩張紙,一張是用品確認,一張是類似入住還合約之類的東西(德文是Wohnungsgeberbestätigung),總之後者一定要留著!入籍時會用到
You will meet your Hausmeister at your dorm.
He will introduce the room and furniture and tell you which is already broken.
If everything is correct, both of you will sign on two sheets.
Definitely keep the Wohnungsgeberbestätigung for city registration.

▲ 入籍 City registration

超級重要!
帶著
  1. 房東跟你簽名的那張紙Wohnungsgeberbestätigung
  2. 從宿舍組拿到的合約
  3. 護照
到Schmiedtorstrasse 4 的戶政事務所(我亂翻的XD德文是Bürgeramt)登記你的住址
辦公室分為前後兩個部門,後面的是foreigners' office
但!登記住址要到前面的部門而非後面的
所以抽號碼牌的時候要選機器上上面的那個選項
入籍完後會拿到一張宇宙重要的紙 Meldebestätigung(類似戶口名簿),之後你不管辦銀行、網卡都會需要它!
***戶政事務所除了禮拜二開整天外,都只開到中午12點***
Super, super important.
Bring Wohnungsgeberbestätigung, dorm contract and passport to city registration office at Schmiedtorstrasse 4.
Then wait in line in the outer part of the office (not the foreigners' office).
You should leave the city registration office with your Meldebestätigung, which is needed to apply for a bank account and sim card.

▲ 語言班報名 Registration for German courses

因為極不公平的先搶先贏機制,先去語言中心報名的人會先安排時間繳費,所以建議大家越早去越好!
報名基本上沒做什麼,就去Wilhelmstrasse 22的語言中心排隊,進去後如果沒有問題要問,工作人員就給你一張有寫繳費時間的紙(下圖),到時候再按照時間來就對了。
The registration is based on first come first serve basis, so do it as early as possible.
Simply go to the language center at Wilhelmstrasse 22 and you'll get a paper with your consulting and paying date.

▲ 找 Frau Simone

Simone是負責交換學生的小姐,辦公室在Nauklerstrasse 2, room 8
去找她會拿到一張to do list,她也會詳細的告訴你要做些什麼
Simone is the one responsible for exchange students. Her office is at Nauklerstrasse 2, room 8
She will give you a to do list.

▲ 保險 Insurance

申請德國簽證時如果不是保公保,而是私保像是mawista的話,需要去公保的公司做公證
可以選擇去Techniker Krankenkasse (TK) 或 AOK這兩間公司,帶著你的保險證明、護照跟Meldebestätigung去即可,他們審核過後會給你一張有TK(或AOK)商標的證明文件Versicherungsbescheinigung
If you have private insurance like mawista, you need to verify it at a public insurance company. In Tübingen it's either Techniker Krankenkasse (TK) or AOK.
Things you need to bring are insurance document, passport and Meldebestätigung, and you'll get a confirmation Versicherungsbescheinigung

▲ 註冊組報到 Registration at the Student Office

帶著 Bring
  1. ALMA系統註冊單 ALMA matriculation form
  2. 杜賓根入學許可 admission letter
  3. 護照 passport
  4. 公證後的保險證明 health insurance letter (Versicherungsbescheinigung)
  5. 照片一張 one photo for student ID
去student office註冊,然後就回家等收信了
to student office, and then you can wait for matriculation letters.

▲ 收信 Waiting for letters

德國人 超 級 愛 寄 信
理論上在註冊組報到後你會收到以下數封信(因為信太多了,我現在也搞不清楚原本哪幾張紙是裝一起的,若有錯誤歡迎更正!)
Germans LOVE to send letters.
You'll receive these things in the following weeks:
╴一本很厚的新生本跟學生證 Student ID
學校信箱的帳號密碼 Password for Tübingen campus
social fee繳費通知 social fee bill
很多小紙條組成的紙 Martriculation letter(其中一張要給Simone,一張要拿去買學期票)
德國政府寄來的稅號 Tax number from German Gov.

▲ 辦銀行帳戶 Get a bank account

帶著護照、戶口名簿去任一間你心儀的銀行預約時間開戶
(別妄想一走進銀行就可以開戶,通常要一個禮拜後的時段)
或是申辦網路銀行,再去郵局作身分認證
不論何種,通常都要開戶成功兩個禮拜後才收得到提款卡(會用寄信的送來)
因此建議來德國時要帶充足的現金及一張信用卡,畢竟因為種種錯誤我來一個月了還沒開好戶
Bring your passport and Meldebestätigung to any bank of your choice and make a reservation.
Or apply for an online bank and verify your identity in the post.
參考:德國銀行開戶經驗及推薦( N26 / Comdirect / Sparkasse )

▲ 手機sim卡 Sim card or prepaid card

如果要辦網路銀行的話,要有電話號碼才能開戶
如果是在實體門市如vodafone, telekom, O2等買預付卡的話,
要帶護照跟戶口名簿做實名認證
Aldi Talk則可以在家視訊認證,一樣需要護照
If you want an online bank, you need a phone number first.
If you are buying cards in vodafone, telekom, and O2 shops, you need your passport and Meldebestätigung too.
Aldi Talk requires you to verify yourself through web.

▲ 選課 Course selection

大家來杜賓根之前就要先看好要選什麼課、怎麼選啊!!!!
有的課在八月底就可以寄信報名了,大多是first come first serve
有的是線上CAMPUS系統註冊,一收到杜賓根的信箱密碼就要趕快選
或者是ILIAS註冊、也有可能不用註冊...
可以參考我其他的文章:杜賓根選課系統介紹
杜賓根德文課 The placement test 考什麼? 
Again, do it as early as possible.
You can register for a course as early as in mid August.
also see my articles: how to register for a course in Tübingen as an exchange student
What is the placement test in Tübingen?

▲ 繳費 Pay social fee

在收到的諸多信之中,有一份是social fee的繳費通知
帶著它跟83.7歐到出納組繳費即可
It's 83.7 euros.

▲ 拿著小紙條再去找Simone   Find Simone again with your matriculation letter

恭喜!完成這一步你在學校的註冊就完成了!
Congratulations! You've done all registrations!

▲ 獎學金報到 Baden-Württemberg Scholarship

有領巴登-符特堡獎學金的人,記得找Frau Juresa報到
她的辦公室在 Wilhelmstrasse 9,會給你一張獎學金證明書、注意事項跟一些紀念品
Remember to find Frau Juresa at Wilhelmstrasse 9 if you receive Baden-Württemberg Scholarship.
She'll give you a proof of the scholarship, reminders and some gifts :)

▲ 領長期居留證 Apply for a temporary residence permit

在Simone給的那張待辦事項上有寫,但戶政事務所的人員告訴我:只有要待超過簽證核可日期的人才需要。所以我最後沒有領。
Only those who are staying longer than their visa permits need a residence permit.

看到這裡,你會發現...德國人真的很愛紙本文件跟寄信...每次出門辦事都要帶一堆紙==

如果你不想要像這樣跑大地遊戲的話,
就付錢參加Start或Kompact Kurs吧! 他們會帶你們跑完所有流程,省去不少心力
就我了解,這些語言班的優點是可以認識新朋友跟簡化以上流程,但缺點是很冗、以及壓縮到真正學德文的時間,看你如何取捨了!
If you don't want to do all these things by yourself, just go to Start or Kompact Kurs.
They will do all these for you (because you paid a lot 🙃)

最後,建議如果可以的話就盡量早來杜賓根吧!
