Can non-EU citizens with an EU long-term residence permit work in Germany?

✓ Answered · 1 min read · Community · 36 views

No, an EU long-term residence permit doesn't automatically give you the right to work in Germany. You'll need to apply for a separate residence and work permit to be employed here. Based on community experience, applying for a Blue Card might be a good option, depending on your eligibility.
