German — Visa & Migration

Anerkennung

Official recognition of your foreign qualification in Germany — essential for regulated jobs like nursing.

Anerkennung is the formal process of getting your Indian qualification recognised as equivalent in Germany. For regulated professions — nursing above all — it is mandatory: your degree plus a German language level must be recognised before you can practise.

For nurses this typically means B1, with B2 strongly preferred by hospitals, plus profession-specific German (Pflege vocabulary). We build that language layer; the paperwork side is best handled with a vetted recognition partner.

What level / visa it maps to

Nursing: B1 minimum, B2 preferred, plus Pflege-specific German. Varies by profession.

We'll be straight with you about the level and timeline your goal actually needs — then get you there.
