I have been offered a job in Germany and I have received the employment contract as well. I am a software engineer and I have the complete transcript with a stamp which states degree completed.

Would this suffice as a proof of my education or do I need the actual degree? Because applying for a formal degree takes more than 2 months and I don't have that much time.

  • This is not a travel question. Ask your future employer what they would accept.

    @InsanityRules, his employer has already accepted. Now the question is what he needs to get a residence permit. Many countries have points systems where a degree gives points, but Germany goes by salary instead -- if someone pays him €40k or €50k a year, he must be highly qualified..

    Two questions: a) What nationality / resident are you and b) does "job" mean "employment" or "contract work"?

Ask on Expatriates Stack Exchange.

But summarized, Germany offers Blue Card work visa to highly skilled workers, and that is defined by earning enough money.

  • If it will be not enough money for getting Blue Card, then one should apply for regular residence permit for working purposes. May 24, 2018 at 11:28
