Steps in Germany

Electronics technician is not a regulated profession in Germany.

  1. Step 1: Skilled worker route

    You do not need recognition to work for a company as an electrician. This visa does: your ITI or diploma must be recognised in Germany, and you need a specific job offer.

  2. Step 2: Or the experience route

    Training of at least two years recognised where you trained, two years' experience in the last five, and at least €45,630 a year (2026).

  3. Step 3: A counsellor checks

    We tell you which route fits your training and confirm the salary figure for your case.
