After completing my studies in Germany, can I work there for two to three years before returning to India?

No, after completing your studies in Germany, you can stay and work for up to 18 months under the Post-Study Work Visa (Residence Permit for the Purpose of Seeking Qualified Employment). This period is intended for searching and starting a job related to your degree.

- Eligibility: Graduates from recognized German universities
- Duration: 18 months (not 2-3 years)
- Next steps: If you secure a qualified job during this time, you can apply for a longer-term work permit, such as the EU Blue Card, which may allow you to stay beyond 18 months.

Visa rules and durations are subject to change.
