Visa Sponsorship Jobs in Germany: How It Works Without a Sponsor List

Germany works differently from the UK or the Netherlands: there is no register of licensed sponsors. Any employer can hire a non-EU worker, as long as the job and the candidate meet the requirements of a route such as the EU Blue Card or the skilled worker residence permit.

So the question isn't “is this company a sponsor?” but “will this company support my visa and relocation?”. Job ads that say so are the best signal.

Good to know

• Because there is no official sponsor list, Relokit doesn't mark German companies as “sponsors”. That would be a guess, not a check.
• Blue Card salary thresholds and other requirements are set by the German government and updated regularly. Check make-it-in-germany.com for the current figures.

Questions
