President Dr Mohamed Muizzu is scheduled to make an official visit to Germany from 9 to 13 February 2026, following an invitation extended by German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
During the visit, President Dr Muizzu is set to hold high-level talks with President Steinmeier and other senior members of the German government. Discussions are expected to focus on a range of bilateral and international issues, with an emphasis on deepening cooperation between Maldives and Germany.
As part of the programme, President Dr Muizzu will visit Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, where he is scheduled to deliver a keynote address highlighting the Maldives’ experience in climate change adaptation. He will also speak at the German Council on Foreign Relations, presenting the Maldives’ perspective on the role of oceans in foreign policy.
A bilateral business forum is also planned during the visit, bringing together stakeholders from both countries to explore potential investment and trade opportunities in the Maldives.
The President will be accompanied by a high-level delegation that includes Cabinet Ministers and representatives from the business sector.
President Dr Muizzu’s visit takes place as Maldives and Germany mark 60 years of diplomatic relations, which were formally established on 5 July 1966. Germany remains a key trade and investment partner for the Maldives, with cooperation spanning areas including development, commerce and climate-related initiatives.
