Document required for German National Visa application I have recently been offered a PhD scholarship in a funded project in University of Duisburg Essen, and I want to apply for visa for the same. the issue is the lab I want to join does not have any Non-EU student as of now and the lab's administrative staff is asking me for what document is required for my Visa application. I want to know what information should I ask for to be written in the Document. And also what other documents should I prepare. 

I tried searching on google and here and could gather the following documents:


Travel health insurance poilcy
Accommodation proof
my Bachelors and Masters academic transcritps 
Blocked account??? (since I have a scholarship offer do I really need this)


Thank you in advance for any help.
Don't trust google for legal advise!!!!

Instead ask the international office of the university you want to attend. Even if the lab has no experience with non-EU students, the university as a whole certainly has. For Duisburg-Essen look here: https://www.uni-due.de/international/index_en.shtml
