How to get a Work Permit in Germany

By Nick | Jan 1, 2008

So you might be wondering the same question I had often been wondering: How to get a Work Permit in Germany?

1. Marry a German
As soon as you get married, you are given full access to Germany just like everyone else who lives and works in Germany. Though, finding the love of your life, yet alone a German Woman or Man who would want to marry you is another question. Typically marrying age in Germany seems to usually be around 28. Also most aren’t really to jump into a huge commitment right away. Sorry, there is no Las Vegas in Germany.

2. Find a Job
This can be another daunting task. Not only do you have to prove you are capable of doing a job that not many Germans can, you have to find an employer willing to go through the process with you. Try reading my job advice here.

3. Study
If you take classes in Germany, you will be allowed to work park time, 20 hours per week, within Germany. This may mean not making that much, but isn’t some money better than none at all? Register yourself in a course somewhere and register with the city, you will be allowed to stay, study and work.

4.Work Illegally?
This is not a very great option since you could get caught and deported. No one likes having to work in fear do they?
