Visa/Transport/Accommodation (Cologne Airport)

When planning participation in an international event such as Anuga Cologne 2027, visa, transport, and accommodation details are of great importance. Proper and timely planning of these elements ensures that your fair experience proceeds smoothly and efficiently.

Visa Information:

Germany is part of the Schengen area, and Turkish citizens must obtain a Schengen visa. A Schengen visa is a short‑term visa (up to 90 days) that allows travel to the 26 countries participating in the European Union’s free movement agreement. For business‑purpose trips such as a fair visit, a “Business Visa” application is required. The visa application process includes obtaining an appointment, preparing the necessary documents, completing the application form, and attending an interview. This process can be time‑consuming, and submitting a complete file is essential. Participants and visitors who do not hold a valid Schengen visa are advised to start the visa procedures before planning their travel. Required documents typically include a passport, visa application form, biometric photo, travel health insurance, accommodation and flight reservations, a commercial invitation, and a guarantee letter from the company. Delta Expo can provide professional support during the visa application process, simplifying this complex procedure for you.

Transportation Information:

The city of Cologne, with its strategic location in western Germany, is a major hub for road, rail, and air transport. The Koelnmesse venue, where the fair is held, is seamlessly integrated into the city’s public transportation network. The Cologne Messe/Deutz station, located right next to the fairgrounds, is an important transport hub served by high‑speed trains. Through this station, the fair can be easily accessed from many major cities in Germany and across Europe. In addition to the fair admission ticket, a public‑transport pass valid for the duration of the fair is provided, allowing visitors to move comfortably within the city. This pass is valid on trams, buses, and regional trains.

The most convenient option for those traveling by air is Cologne Bonn Airport (CGN), located about 15 kilometers from Cologne city centre. From the airport, easy access to the city centre and the exhibition grounds is available by train (S-Bahn or Regional Express) or bus. A train ride of approximately 15‑20 minutes can take you to Cologne city centre or directly to Cologne Messe/Deutz station. Additionally, Düsseldorf International Airport (DUS) is an alternative gateway to Cologne, with a train connection taking about 30‑45 minutes.

Accommodation Information:

During a major fair such as Anuga, it is highly likely that hotels in Cologne will experience high occupancy and price increases. Therefore, making accommodation reservations as early as possible is of great importance. Hotels near the exhibition grounds may be preferred for ease of transport, while hotels in the city centre or other areas with good public‑transport connections can also be considered. Cologne offers a wide range of hotel options; from luxury chain hotels to boutique accommodations, business hotels to more affordable guesthouses, many alternatives are available. Early booking provides price advantages and the opportunity to benefit from a broader selection of options.

During the fair period, you can also consider cities around Cologne such as Bonn, Leverkusen, or Düsseldorf, but daily travel times must be taken into account.

At Delta Expo, we organize all of these details on your behalf by offering comprehensive fair tour packages that include airfare, hotel reservations, and visa processing. Our professional team supports your travel planning, ensuring that your Anuga experience is comfortable and efficient from start to finish.
