You must show a valid travel document, health insurance covering emergencies, sufficient means of subsistence, and a clean criminal record, alongside the hosting agreement.
Beyond the hosting agreement, the permit relies on the general conditions that apply to most temporary residence applicants. You need a passport valid well beyond your intended stay, proof of health insurance that covers emergency treatment, and evidence of sufficient monthly funds to support yourself.
A criminal record certificate and a photograph are also part of the file, and fees apply depending on whether you apply at a consulate, an administrative unit, or for the card itself. Assembling these documents early, properly translated and legalised, helps avoid delays in a process that is otherwise relatively researcher-friendly.
