Residence permit for university graduates looking for employment
After getting your degree in Germany you can extend your residence permit for up to 18 months for the purpose of seeking appropriate employment. It is mandatory to apply for this extension at your local Foreigners Registration Office (Ausländerbehörde) after completing your studies. You need proof of a secure livelihood, which also entails appropriate health insurance, in order to apply for this permit.
Residence for the purpose of taking up employment
When you have found suitable employment in accordance with your university degree, your current residence title can be extended into a residence title for the purpose of taking up employment. For that you need to submit your new employment contract to the Foreigners Registration Office. Should all requirements be fulfilled, the office together with the Federal Employment Agency will change your title accordingly.
Residence permit for the purpose of self-employment
As a graduate you may wish to become self-employed. As long as you can demonstrate a connection to your degree, you can apply for a Residence permit for the purpose of self-employment.
