Can I upload my passport or residence card publicly?
Do not post identity documents or numbers in the forum. Describe the residence category in text. If a specialist needs documents, use an authorised private process with clear purpose and access limits.

Can a recruiter guarantee my German visa?
Treat an approval guarantee as a warning sign. Ask who provides the service, what the fees cover and what happens if refused. The competent authorities decide immigration applications; companies should explain the lawful

What should I do if wages are missing?
Keep the contract, payslips, attendance and messages. Request a written payroll explanation and seek prompt qualified advice about recovery and deadlines. A public forum post is not a substitute for asserting a claim.

Does a Czech trade certificate automatically authorise German regulated work?
Do not assume recognition. Identify the German occupation, whether it is regulated, the certificate issuer and the intended activity. Have the competent authority confirm the applicable requirements.

Can a foreign nurse work immediately after receiving an offer?
Nursing is regulated. Recognition, professional authorisation and language requirements matter; official guidance identifies B2 German for recognition. A recognition or assistant-work arrangement must not be confused wit

Do all foreign qualifications need the same recognition?
No. Requirements depend on the occupation and immigration route. Regulated professions need the relevant recognition or professional permission; other routes may use different evidence. Identify the job before directing

Are a registered address and permission to work the same thing?
No. Address registration, residence permission and employment authorisation serve different purposes. Completing a housing or registration step does not itself authorise the intended job.

What should I check before accepting company accommodation?
Request the address, number of residents, total rent, deposit, deductions, notice terms and what happens when the job ends. Confirm which registration documents the provider supplies.

Does a spouse automatically qualify for free family insurance?
Do not assume so. Ask the insurer to check eligibility using the family member’s income, employment, residence and other conditions. Keep these details in a private process when necessary.

Are taxes and insurance deducted from gross wages?
For employment subject to compulsory contributions, deductions include applicable taxes and social insurance. The amount is personal and can change. Use the payslip rather than treating a gross figure as the bank payment

Will I normally need German health insurance?
Health insurance is required and most employees use statutory coverage. Confirm the right arrangement for the residence route, employment and arrival period; do not assume travel insurance is enough for ongoing employmen

What should I check in an employment offer?
Check legal employer, workplace, role, gross pay, working time, trial period, holiday, termination conditions, collective agreement and deductions. Get unclear terms explained before accepting.

Should every Sunday or night shift have the same premium?
Do not assume a universal premium from an advertisement. Ask for the contract, applicable collective agreement, shift details and payroll explanation before quoting an entitlement.

What is the statutory minimum paid holiday?

Does a minijob remove immigration restrictions?
No. The person still needs permission for that employment. Check residence conditions and any limits that apply to students, job-search residence or other categories. The word minijob does not create an exemption.

What is the minijob earnings limit in 2026?
The regular monthly earnings limit is EUR 603 in 2026. A minijob is an employment and social-insurance category, not a work visa. Multiple jobs and exceptional earnings need separate assessment.

Can Workmarket calculate exact take home pay?
An estimate needs the tax year, insurance and other personal assumptions. Deductions vary with factors such as income, tax class and family circumstances. Label estimates and ask payroll to confirm the actual calculation

How do I compare a German offer with a Czech offer?

Why can a salary below the national median still be lawful?
A median describes a distribution; it is not a legal pay floor or a guaranteed offer. Check minimum or binding sector pay, role requirements and the actual employment terms separately.
