Subcategories

  • Business Legalities

    Inside the FAQ for business legalities, we want to provide you with a very basic understanding that you can prepare the consultation with us. This category collects topics around businesses (company law) as well as making business.

  • Entry

    This section is all about describing what you need to successfully apply for a residence permit and individual kinds of permits. Best start with General Requirements for Residence Permits to Germany. These general requirements must be met for each and every kind of permit. If you lack already one, then your chances of success in obtaining a permit are slim.

  • Qualifications for Needed Professions in Germany

    Qualifications for Needed Professions in Germany

    Here we randomly introduce highly needed professions in Germany. They help you get an orientation on what will be expected from you when applying for a permit.
    Let us assume, you do not immediately fulfill all requirements for a profile, that does not automatically mean an end of your career in Germany. It only means that you might first have to start with a “training permit” and later switch to fully fledged employment permit.

  • Residence

    This section is all about your extending and living on your residence permit.

  • Visas

    information on visa

    This topic is all about visas – but not residence permits. Please understand as "visa" the permission to be inside Germany as a visitor for up to three months in a row. A "residence permit" allows persons to indefinitely live here and maybe also pursue some kind of employment and in the long run be eligible for permanent residency – longest after five years.
