Germany’s shifting immigration system is a balancing act

Germany is modernising its immigration rules to tackle a growing labour crisis – without losing grip on political stability.

While reforms like the Opportunity Card and changes to the EU Blue Card make it easier for skilled workers to enter the country, the system remains notoriously complex.

For HR and mobility teams, getting it wrong isn’t just inconvenient – it’s a compliance risk with real consequences.

This in-depth e-book breaks down everything you need to know. Whether you’re hiring from abroad, posting staff to Germany, or assessing tax exposure, this is your must-have guide.
