German Visa Consultants in Lahore

To immigrate for work, you’ll need a job offer from a German employer and a work permit visa (Beschäftigungserlaubnis). The employer typically needs to advertise the position within the EU/EEA first. Research “Germany work permit visa for Pakistani” for details.

There isn’t a special visa category for Pakistanis. However, the most common option is the work permit visa. Additionally, a “residence permit for work with high professional skills” (Aufenthaltstitel für Hochqualifizierte) exists for in-demand professions, without an advertised position requirement

Germany doesn’t offer a traditional job seeker visa. However, there is a possibility to apply for a short-term visa (usually 3 months) to enter Germany for job hunting purposes. This requires proof of sufficient funds and a solid plan for your job search.

The process involves securing a job offer, gathering documents (work contract, qualifications, financials), and applying through the German embassy or consulate in Pakistan.

Requirements depend on the specific visa type. Generally, you’ll need a valid passport, a job offer (unless applying for the high-skills permit), proof of skills and qualifications, health insurance, and meeting Germany’s livelihood requirements. Check the German embassy website for details.

The application fee for a work permit varies but is typically around €80 (approx. PKR 14,500). Additional costs might include medical checks, translations, and consultant fees (if applicable).

Consultants offer expertise, reduced stress, potentially increased success rates, and personalized support throughout the application process for your Germany work visa from Pakistan.
