Can I live in Germany and work in another EU country?

✓ Answered · 1 min read · Community · 33 views

Having an employment contract in another EU country doesn't automatically give you the right to reside in Germany. You'll likely need to apply for a separate residence permit to live here. It's really important to verify your specific situation with the relevant authorities, like the local Ausländerbehörde (foreigners' office).
