Germany has the following benefits:

  • Germany offers a high-quality education system, including free or low-cost public schooling and tuition-free higher education for both domestic and international students. This makes it an attractive destination for families and students.
  • Germany ranks high in terms of quality of life, with excellent public services, clean cities, and a good balance between work and leisure. T

Downsides of Germany:

  • While the healthcare system is excellent, it can be costly for those who are not part of the public system or who need to pay for private health insurance. Navigating the health insurance options can be confusing for newcomers.
  • Germany has a progressive tax system with relatively high income taxes, especially when compared to some other countries.
  • High cost of living.

    I had a good experience with the agency overall. I took their service for obtaining permanent residency in Germany. The appointment took more than 6 months but I think its the usual norm. The entire team is quite professional and clarified all my questions & doubts swiftly during the entire process. They helped in preparing the documents and they have filed for my permanent residency on time. Before the appointment, they guided on the important documents and sent a colleague to support me during the appointment. Although he was there was an interpreter, I was able to present myself and take the interview in German to obtain the permanent residency. Having them support throughout the interview made me comfortable and confident especially at the time of my pregnancy. I'm glad to have taken their service and recommend for any expat to take their help to have a hassle free process. Overall I'm satisfied with the service and wont hesitate to use their service again for any another process in Germany.

    Ina and her team were incredible throughout my process. I contacted them quite late when switching my visa from a blue card and they gave me the perfect advice and made the whole process look easy. Their guidance, expertise and support is unmatched. Have used a few agencies in the past here in Berlin and they certainly stand out amongst them all. Can only give my highest recommendation.
