Granting a residence permit for employment as a skilled worker regardless of qualification
Source: BUS Rheinland-PfalzThe residence permit, regardless of the qualification as a skilled worker, can be issued for employment stays resulting from the provisions of the Employment Ordinance, e.g. for seasonal employment, for domestic workers, specialty cooks, professional drivers.
Citizens of certain countries may also be granted a residence permit for any employment, regardless of their personal qualifications, if they meet further requirements. These are nationals of the following countries:
- Andorra, Australia, Israel, Japan, Canada, Republic of Korea, Monaco, New Zealand, San Marino, USA (Section 26 (1) Employment Ordinance)
- until the end of 2020 also: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia (Section 26 (2) Employment Ordinance, so-called Western Balkans regulation)
It is not a requirement that you are a skilled worker within the meaning of the Residence Act, i.e. you do not need to have a university degree or qualified vocational training.
The residence permit for employment regardless of the qualification as a skilled worker is a temporary residence permit. The duration of the time limit depends on the duration of the employment contract or is determined by the provisions of the Employment Ordinance.
Before the residence permit is issued, the Federal Employment Agency must generally approve the employment, unless the provisions of the Employment Ordinance state that the approval of the Federal Employment Agency is not required.
You must apply for a residence permit at the foreigners authority responsible for your place of residence (in BB: at the foreigners authority of the district/city)
- Depending on the foreigners authority and your request, it may be possible to apply online. Find out whether your foreigners authority offers electronic application for a residence permit.
- If the application can only be made in person, arrange an appointment with the immigration office.
- During the appointment, your application will be accepted and your supporting documents checked (please bring these with you to the appointment). Your fingerprints will be taken to issue the electronic residence permit (eAT).
- In the case of an electronic application, the Foreigners' Registration Office will contact you after receiving your online application to arrange an appointment for an interview at the Foreigners' Registration Office. During the appointment, your documents will be checked (please bring them with you to the appointment) and your fingerprints will be taken for the eAT card to be issued.
- If your application is approved, the Foreigners' Registration Office will arrange for the eAT card to be issued.
- After about six to eight weeks, you can collect your eAT card from the immigration office
