Frequently asked
What salary do I need for a German Blue Card in 2026?
€50,700 a year gross for most roles, or €45,934.20 for shortage occupations, graduates within three years of their degree, and IT professionals without a degree. Bonuses and variable pay do not count.
Can I get a Blue Card in Germany without a degree?
Yes, as an IT professional with at least three years of university-level IT work in the last seven years, for a job that pays at least €45,934.20.
Do I need to speak German for tech jobs in Germany?
Many tech teams work in English, and the Blue Card itself does not need German. German shortens the path to permanent residence: 21 months with B1 instead of 27 with A1.
Is there a list of companies that sponsor visas in Germany?
No. Germany has no sponsor licence system, so any employer can hire you on a Blue Card. The roles on this page say in the posting that they support visas or relocation.
