Immigration through Job Seeker Visa(GERMANY)

OPPORTUNITY CARD GERMANY (CHANCENKARTE DEUTSCHLAND)

INTRODUCTION:

The purpose of the Opportunity Card is to make the Skilled Immigration Act significantly more lucrative. Qualified non-EU citizens who do not yet have a permanent employment contract in Germany can enter Germany based on a points system to look for work. Part-time work of up to 20 hours a week and two-week trial jobs are permitted. In order to receive the Opportunity Card,applicants from non-EU countries must prove they have completed at least two years of vocational training or have a university degree and sufficient knowledge of German (A1) or English (B2).

Applicants should also be able to support themselves financially. The Opportunity Card brings

enormous advantages for both applicants from abroad and employers in Germany.

Basic requirements for the Opportunity Card:

Larger applicant pool: The Opportunity Card offers access to a whole new pool of applicants. It also gives qualified applicants from non-EU countries the opportunity to enter Germany.Applicants do not need a fixed employment contract in advance, but can simply legitimise themselves using the associated points system. With the issuance of the Opportunity Card,applicants obtain a 12-month residence permit in Germany to look for a suitable job. If you offer an applicant trial work or part-time employment of up to 20 hours a week, your applicant’s chances of permanent residence in Germany increases. By changing to another residence title, which must be applied for at the local Foreigners’ Registration Office, you can also offer your applicant a full-time job in the future.
Simple entry conditions facilitate entry into the workplace: The Opportunity Card offers potential workers from non-EU countries an easier way to enter the country than was previously the case. Complicated residence and employment applications are no longer necessary. Using the points system, applicants can easily and quickly prove that they meet the necessary requirements. They can apply via the local Foreigners’ Registration Office or at the competent German mission abroad in their country of origin. Skilled workers with a recognised training qualification receive the Opportunity Card immediately.
No approval procedure by the Federal Employment Agency necessary: The application for the Opportunity Card is made via the competent German mission abroad in the country of origin or the local Foreigners’ Registration Office. An external examination by the Federal Employment Agency is not necessary. If the applicant meets all requirements, they will receive the Opportunity Card and a 12-month residence permit for Germany. And then the search for a suitable job can begin.
Fast-track entry into the workplace through simple approval procedures: The Opportunity Card offers workers from non-EU countries a quick and easy chance of integrating in the German labour market. The facilitated entry procedure and guaranteed residence permit for up to one year ensure that the applicant can seek qualified employment with the prospect of long-term work. If the employment is successful, the employer and applicant can apply for a change to another residence title.
Contracting for basic work: Foreign workers with an Opportunity Card can apply for basic or part-time jobs. Up to 20 hours per week are permitted, which can be calculated flexibly (e.g. more hours in the first week and fewer hours the following week). Employers can conclude a contract in this regard with prospective applicants exclusively before entry into the country. Concluding a contract in advance offers both sides additional security when it comes to starting the new job.

Advantages for Employers

The shortage of skilled workers is reaching a high level in Germany. Employers are clearly feeling the impact: applications are failing to materialise and some vacancies cannot be filled. According to a forecast by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action, there could be a shortage of around 16 million workers by 2060 (as of May 2023).

The main reason for this is the ageing population in Germany. Demographic change is unavoidable, which means that the number of young, employable people will continue to decline in the future.

By introducing the Skilled Immigration Act, the Federal Government has already taken the first steps to counteract this problem. However, bureaucratic hurdles prevent higher immigration levels for foreign skilled workers.
