Will I be able to stay in Germany for one or two years or more after completing my course for a Master's?
Yes, after completing your master's in Germany, you can stay for up to 18 months on a Job Seeker Residence Permit to find work related to your field.
If you secure a suitable job during this period, you can switch to a work residence permit or the EU Blue Card, allowing you to stay and work in Germany for several years, with the possibility of permanent residency.
The initial post-study stay is up to 18 months, but with employment, your stay can extend to one, two, or more years. Policies are subject to change.
How long can you stay and work after a German master's?
Post-study work rules are changing. Know what you will actually get.
