Chancenkarte - Opportunity Card Visa

With the Opportunity Card (“Chancenkarte”), candidates from non-EU countries can enter Germany to look for a suitable job. They do not have to show proof of a permanent employment contract. The Opportunity Card is issued to candidates recognized as skilled workers or those who score at least six points using the points system. In addition, their means of support must be guaranteed for the duration of their stay.

The Opportunity Card entitles the holder to take a two-week trial job or part-time job (up to 20 hours a week). Candidates holding the Opportunity Card are allowed to stay in Germany for one year. During this time, the focus should be on finding a job.

Who Can Apply?

To apply for a Chancenkarte, the applicant must meet certain requirements:

• Have a university degree, vocational training or a professional qualification from a recognized institution.
• Have at least 3 years of relevant work experience.
• Have German language proficiency at about level B1 or be fluent in English at level C1.
• Be 35 years or younger.
• Have proof of financial independence.
