Does my child need to be able to speak German for admission?

No, your child does not need to speak German upon admission to kindergarten. Knowledge of German is an advantage, but not necessary. Kindergarten children learn German during their kindergarten years – in addition, there are support programs for non-native speakers. Please also read the kindergarten’s DaF concept (German as a Foreign Language): https://www.ds-doha.de/en/daf-german-as-foreign-language/.
