That depends on your nationality and the length of your stay. If you are an EU or EEA citizen, you do not need a visa to study in Frankfurt. Non-EU citizens will generally need a visa for stays longer than 90 days. For language courses, you can apply for a language course visa, which typically allows a stay of up to one year. Make sure to apply in advance at the German embassy or consulate in your home country, and be prepared to show proof of course booking, accommodation, health insurance, and financial means.
