Background

How to get a job seeker visa?

The visa process is simple. The candidate has to prove their University degree recognized in Germany and show sufficient financial background to support their stay in Germany. The successful applicant will get a visa for six months and can search for a job until the last day of the visa validity. In exceptional cases, a prolongation of the Visa is also possible. During this period, you are not eligible to work part-time or as self-employed. However, as soon as you get a concrete job offer in your field, you can apply for a working permit as well as a residence permit in the responsible foreigner’s office.
