What Is the Germany Opportunity Card?

The Germany Opportunity Card is a residence permit designed for qualified non-EU professionals who wish to come to Germany and look for employment.
It provides a unique opportunity to explore job options in Germany while already residing in the country.

Key Highlights:

  • No job offer required before arrival.

  • Valid for up to one year (with possible extension).

  • Allows you to work part-time (up to 20 hours/week) while job-hunting.

  • Once you secure a job, you can easily transition to a work visa or residence permit.

The German government launched this initiative to attract global talent and address its skilled labour shortage across industries such as engineering, healthcare, IT, and hospitality.
