The Germany Opportunity Card for skilled people 

The Chancenkarte, or Opportunity Card, is a new way to move to Germany. Its goal is to bring in skilled foreign workers to help with the country's growing labour shortage. The Opportunity Card was made available in 2024 as part of bigger changes to Germany's immigration rules. Those who are not from the EU can enter Germany more easily and quickly and look for work for up to one year. In order to make it easier for people to get jobs in Germany, the initiative has clear rules that make sure that skills are recognised and economic needs are met.

Why should you choose the Germany Opportunity Card?

People can get a Chance Card even if they don't have a job offer yet because of a points system. One's age, level of education, work experience, ability to speak German or English, and ties to Germany are just some of the things that affect how many points they get. Those who want to be considered must get a certain number of points. It is very important to have professional credentials or college degrees that are recognised. People who are younger and speak English well also do well. This building is meant to bring in professionals with a lot of education and skilled workers who can help the German economy.

Great thing about the Opportunity Card is that you can use it in many situations. People who have a card can work up to 20 hours a week while they look for full-time work. They can also do "Probearbeit," or test work, to show potential employers what they can do. Newcomers will have more time to get used to the job market, make connections, and learn about how people live in the area. When someone has a valid card and gets a good job during that time, they can change it to a long-term residence permit that is tied to their job.
