Germany Skilled Job Seeker Visa

Overview

Find How to Migrate Germany under Job Seeker Visa

Germany Skilled Job Seeker Visa is a long-term residence permit valid for six months that allows a highly skilled individual the opportunity to stay in Germany and look for a job.

The country is experiencing a shortage of skilled manpower in some sectors and this visa category allows qualified individuals to work in Germany. It is the economic hub of Europe and prides itself in being one of the safest and richest countries in the world.

Once you are able to find a job opportunity, you then have to convert the Skilled Job Seeker Visa to a residence permit which will give you the freedom as an immigrant, to reside and work in Germany.

Note that getting the job seeker visa is not a license for you to immediately start working in Germany. It only allows you to visit and search for a job while there.
