If you live outside the EU, you will generally require a visa for the purpose of gainful employment which will be issued by the competent German diplomatic mission. The competent foreign office can suspend a change in job of an EU Blue Card holder for 30 days and reject it within this period in the first twelve months of employment. If the conditions are met, it can be extended.

However, an employment contract or binding offer of employment for a period of at least six months is required in all cases. If the duration of the employment contract is shorter than four years, the EU Blue Card is issued for the duration of the employment contract, plus three months.

The EU Blue Card is a temporary residence permit that is issued for a period of four years as a matter of principle.
