Work in Germany in the occupation in which you have been trained

The Recognition Act has been in force since 2012 and makes it easier for persons with foreign professional and vocational qualifications to obtain recognition for these qualifications in Germany. BIBB is contributing towards the successful implementation of the new law by providing evaluation research and via the “Recognition in Germany” service portal.
