Information only: no verified partner yet. No verified vacancies in this country yet. A country page here means we can explain that country's legal route accurately. It does not mean we can place you there. Pages marked "information only" have no verified partner and no vacancies, and we say so on the page itself rather than burying it.
The main routes
The European Commission's EU Immigration Portal describes several distinct routes for Germany. The first is a residence permit for job search, which allows someone with a recognised higher-education degree to stay in Germany for up to six months to look for work, without the right to work during that time.
The second is the EU Blue Card, which requires a completed university degree and an employment contract meeting a minimum salary threshold. That threshold is set annually and is tied to the earnings ceiling of the general pension scheme, so the exact figure changes; check the current value in the official source.
All routes normally require an initial visa before entry, health insurance, sufficient resources and accommodation, with the residence permit application made at the local foreigners authority (Ausländerbehörde).
Why recognition is the real bottleneck
Many occupations in Germany are regulated, or require your foreign qualification to be formally recognised as equivalent to the German one. This applies particularly in healthcare and care work, and to a number of technical trades. The recognition procedure can require translated documents, additional training or an examination.
The practical consequence is this: an Armenian welder, nurse or electrician can have real, strong experience and still wait months before that experience acquires formal standing in the German system. That is not a failure, it is how the system works, and it has to be built into any timeline.
Language is the second real requirement. For care roles and customer-facing positions a specific level of German is usually mandatory, and no recruiter can work around it.
What we do not have yet
We have no verified employer or agency in Germany, and there are no vacancies on this page. The German route needs a partner prepared to wait through the recognition procedure and to invest in language training, and we have not yet verified such a partner.
For German employers: if your roles require recognition or a German language level, say so at the outset. We would rather present few candidates who will actually clear the procedure than many who will not.

Questions about this country
Is my Armenian diploma recognised in Germany?
Not automatically. Germany has a formal recognition procedure, and the outcome can be full recognition, partial recognition subject to further training, or refusal. In regulated professions such as nursing you cannot work in that profession without recognition. The procedure can take months and costs money in translations.
Can I go to Germany and look for work there?
In some cases yes. The job-search residence permit lets someone with a recognised higher-education degree stay in Germany for up to six months to look for work, but you may not work during that time and you must show you can support yourself. This is not the same as travelling on a tourist visa to look for work, which is not lawful.
