Working as a driver

Recognition is not necessary if you want to enter Germany to work as a driver. However, you can also apply for recognition of your professional qualification. Recognition has many advantages. Further information about the requirements is available at Make-it-in-Germany.com.

Getting your professional qualification recognised

Have you trained for this profession and successfully completed a test? If so, you can have your professional training recognised in Germany. Recognition has many advantages: In Germany, your training is recognised as equivalent. You have improved opportunities in the job market. Employers then know that you have at least the same skills and knowledge as you would following training in Germany. It is therefore easier for employers to understand your qualification.
