Tb2GeSi3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Tb4+ sites. In the first Tb4+ site, Tb4+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Si4- atoms. There are a spread of Tb–Si bond distances ranging from 3.08–3.40 Å. In the second Tb4+ site, Tb4+ is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten Si4- atoms. There are a spread of Tb–Si bond distances ranging from 3.06–3.15 Å. Ge4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three Si4- atoms. There are two shorter (2.45 Å) and one longer (2.55 Å) Ge–Si bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Si4- sites. In the first Si4- site, Si4- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six Tb4+, one Ge4+, and two equivalent Si4- atoms. Both Si–Si bond lengths are 2.35 Å. In the second Si4- site, Si4- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six Tb4+ and three Si4- atoms. The Si–Si bond length is 2.40 Å. In the third Si4- site, Si4- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to six Tb4+, two equivalent Ge4+, and one Si4- atom.
