Japa Made Easier As Germany Launches Opportunity Card To Entice Non-EU Workers
Are you from a non-EU country and eager to work in Germany? Germany has launched the Opportunity Card (“Chancenkarte”)
It allows candidates from non-EU countries to enter and seek employment without needing a permanent job contract.
This initiative aims to attract skilled workers by simplifying the process. Candidates must be recognized as skilled workers or accumulate at least six points in a points-based system. Financial support for their stay must be assured.
The Opportunity Card facilitates easier, legal entry to Germany, offers a chance for a good income, and provides the potential for permanent residency. After a successful application, candidates receive an immediate work permit.
This initiative simplifies the job search process in Germany. Applicants need a minimum of two years of vocational training or a university degree recognized by their home country and language proficiency in German (A1) or English (B2). Financial stability is crucial, which can be demonstrated with a part-time job (up to 20 hours per week).
Key Benefits of the Opportunity Card:
Easy Entry Simplified process to enter Germany.
12-Month Stay: One-year residency with the possibility of a permanent permit.
Earning Potential: Over 1000 euros monthly income possible.
Work Flexibility: Permit for up to 20 hours of work per week.
