Yes, it is possible to transfer from a job in Germany to the USA after placement, but it depends on your employer and U.S. visa requirements.
- Employer's global presence: Transfers are usually possible if your company has offices in both Germany and the USA.
- L-1 visa: For intracompany transfers, typically after at least one year with your company abroad within the last three years.
- H-1B visa: For specialty occupations, requires U.S. employer sponsorship and meeting specific job criteria.
Visa policies are subject to change.
