Unfortunately, the telephone hotline is often busy. Responses to written inquiries to the hotline can take several weeks.

The “Working and Living in Germany” hotline run by the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees and the Federal Employment Agency
offers telephone guidance.

Are you living abroad and want to apply for recognition from there? The hotline will refer you to the Service Center for Professional
Recognition (ZSBA). They will help you during the application and offer you individual counselling and support all the way through the
recognition procedure up until your arrival in Germany.

What happens during the counselling?

Counselling provides answers to the following questions:

Have I selected the correct reference profession?

What does the recognition procedure involve?
Which documents must I submit and in what form?
Can I receive financial support?
Do I have alternatives to recognition?
What can I do if I do not receive recognition?
What are the training options?

Our recommendation: First seek counselling and then apply for recognition. In this way any mistakes in the application and delays in the
processing can be avoided.

What do I need for the counselling?

Some information is required for the counselling. The counsellor can help you better with it This information is important:

What is the exact name of the profession or degree in your country of training?
Which qualification should be recognised?
Have you already applied for recognition? If yes, to which competent authority did you apply?

You can bring these documents to the counselling:

Certificates and subject overviews

Evidence of your professional experience (e. g. employment references or timebook)
Your proof of identity
Your current contact details
Your CV
Evidence of your knowledge of German
If you have already applied: the notice and letters from the competent authorities

If any information or documents are missing, don’t worry. You only need all the documents for the application itself. Do you already have
documents translated into German? If so, bring these with you to the counselling.

I don’t have all the documents yet. Can I still come for counselling?

If any information or documents are missing, don’t worry. The counsellors can help you already. They will also tell you which documents you need
in original or copy. You only need all the documents for the application itself.

Do I need to have all the documents translated for the counselling?

No, you do not need to have all your documents translated for the counselling. Do you already have some German documents? If so, bring these
with you to the counselling. The counsellor will tell you whether you need to have further documents translated for your application.

What can I expect during the procedure?

In the recognition procedure, the competent authority checks the equivalence of your foreign professional qualification. Specific documents are
necessary for this equivalence assessment. These show the content and duration of training. Your professional experience and other knowledge
and skills are taken into account. Your foreign professional qualification is recognised as equivalent if there are no substantial differences when
compared to the German professional qualification.
