What is the best way to get a visa in Germany?

Question

I'm looking to move abroad and I want to know how to get a visa for Germany. Do you need a work visa to work there? Where are some of the best places to start to find jobs and opportunities?

Answer 1

There is only one way to get a visa and that is from the German embassy in your country.  (If you have a EEA/EU passport then you do not need a visa)

To be honest, getting a working visa nowadays for any EU country is very difficult indeed unless you are an Au pair or a Highly Skilled Migrant

Before looking for a job, apartment etc, first of all contact your local German embassy and/or read more from the German official dept site about this (it has a lot of info geared towards personal circumstances depending on your nationality and skills) http://www.auswaertiges-amt.de/diplo/en/...

Good luck
