Recently, Germany announced the Chancenkarte, or “Opportunity Card”, a new work visa that offers non-Europeans a unique chance to immigrate to the country. This point system, which began accepting applications on June 1, evaluates candidates based on academic qualifications, language skills, and professional experience.
Open opportunities with Chancenkarte
With Chancenkarte, those who have experience and potential can find suitable jobs in Germany more quickly and efficiently. This visa allows non-Europeans to live in Germany for up to one year while looking for a job, without needing an employer to sponsor them. In addition, it allows them to work part-time while searching for a stable job.
This initiative aims to combat labor shortages in crucial sectors such as medicine, education, manufacturing, and engineering. It is an excellent opportunity for qualified professionals to settle in Germany and contribute to the country's economy.
