THE GERMAN JOB SEEKER VISA

• Germany today is witnessing a decline in unemployment and its job market is held with high regard worldwide, as many hundreds and thousands of foreign or international individuals fly to Germany in order to look for, or secure a job. To find a job and become a resident of Germany is possible by following certain procedures.

  To find jobs in Germany, one can fly there on a job seeker visa. The Germany job seeker visa allows individuals to remain in Germany for a specific period of time and search for employment. A German Job Seeker Visabis basically a special type of visa issued by the government of Germany that allows the non-EU or EEA citizens to enter Germany for a specific and limited period of time, in order to search for jobs and employment opportunities. This visa is basically intended to provide international individuals with the chance to explore the German job market and secure a suitable job offer that aligns with their qualifications, interests and skills. The Job Seeker Visa entitles one with the eligibility to stay in Germany for up to six months and search for a job. However, not everyone can easily turn out to be eligible for the job seeker visa, and to be granted one, the aspirants need to meet certain requirements.

   

  Whether or not one requires a German job seeker visa to seek jobs in the country depends on their citizenship or nationality. Those individuals who belong to the European Union, EEA, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, South Korea, Israel, Japan, Canada, and the USA can enter Germany to seek jobs or other employment opportunities without the mandatory requirement to obtain a job seeker visa first. But they are required to register for a residency permit in Germany once they arrive in Germany.

  Residents of all the other countries are not eligible for this visa exemption and are mandatorily required to apply for a job seeker visa in order to be allowed to enter Germany.
