GLOBUS immigration & relocation can let you know whether the qualifications to apply for an EU Blue Card in Berlin are met and we can guide your international specialists and managers along the process.
The EU Blue Card is a special residence title for university graduates, which is intended to facilitate and promote the permanent immigration of highly qualified persons from non-EU countries to Germany. This residence title is generally issued for a period of four years. If the duration of the employment contract is less than four years, the EU Blue Card is issued for the duration of the employment contract plus three months. If the requirements are met, an extension is possible.
GLOBUS immigration & relocation informs you about the requirements, necessary documents and the corresponding procedure. Furthermore, we guarantee you and your employees a fixed contact person as well as an accelerated and timely processing.
Spouses of EU Blue Card holders are entitled to the issuance of a residence title without proven German language skills. They are granted immediate and unlimited permission to take up employment.
EU Blue Card holders can obtain a settlement permit after 33 months of employment in Germany if they have made monthly contributions to the statutory pension insurance fund during this period and if they are able to make themselves understood in German on a basic level and have basic knowledge of the legal and social order in Germany.
The qualification period is shortened to 21 months for people with adequate knowledge of German (B1 level).
