Calculating Minimum Financial Means
To bring your family, you must show additional funds. The main applicant needs 100% of the minimum wage. A spouse or partner adds 50%. Each child adds 30%.
For a family of three (Couple + 1 Child) in 2026, assuming a base of €920: Main (€920) + Spouse (€435) + Child (€261) = €1,566 per month. You need 12 months of this total amount in your bank account.
