The Federal Employment Agency simplifies labour migration for skilled workers

For the Federal Employment Agency (BA), supporting labour migration is a key pillar of securing labour and skilled workers in Germany. With immediate effect, interested workers can therefore obtain information online from abroad on topics related to labour migration, such as job hunting, training, recognition and labour market admission, and register on the BA's online portal.

In their online profile, prospective immigrants can provide information about their education, German language skills and desired occupation, among other things. This makes it easier to provide advice and potentially find a match afterwards.

If your details match the requirements of the German labour market, you will be given an appointment for a consultation straight away. Interested professionals also receive support in finding the right job and advice on the recognition of qualifications. Interested professionals can find the necessary information on the website of the Federal Employment Agency in German, English and Spanish.

The Federal Employment Agency pursues the goals of fair migration and uses the labour market admission procedure to check whether all legal requirements are being met. The legal provisions prevent unfair wage competition between domestic and foreign workers and protect standards on the German labour market.
