Relocation to Germany via Chancenkarte 2026 without a blocked account
Everyone talks about the Opportunity Card, but they omit the main point: the consulate requires an immediate freeze of €13,092 of personal funds. We legally free you from this barrier by providing an official part-time job contract even before the visa.

Calculate your points for the Chancenkarte strictly according to the 2026 standards of the German Foreign Ministry.
What is the Chancenkarte and what is the fate of its owner?
We explain the German state immigration program in simple terms.
What is this card for?
A titular state visa for 12 months, created by the German government to attract qualified specialists. It gives the right to legally fly to Germany and stay there year-round without being tied to an employer at the start.
Who can get it?
Anyone over 18 years old who has a recognized university or college degree, basic knowledge of English (B2) or German (A1) language, and who has scored at least 6 points on the German Foreign Ministry scale.
What happens to you after receiving the card?
Step 1: Arrival and instant earnings
You fly to Germany. By law (§ 20a AufenthG) you are allowed to work part-time up to 20 hours a week in absolutely any field. With our contract, you are guaranteed employment from the first week, providing yourself with money and housing.
Step 2: Comfortable search for the main job
You have a whole 12 months to calmly go to interviews, adapt, get language practice, and choose the best workplace for your main specialty.
Step 3: Transition to a permanent residence permit or Blue Card
As soon as you find a full-time job according to your degree within a year, you change the Chancenkarte directly inside Germany to a full working residence permit (§ 18a/18b) or an EU Blue Card.
How to bypass the requirement of €13,092 on the account?
A legal method approved by German legislation.
Standard path (Where everyone trips)
The consulate requires opening a Sperrkonto (blocked account) and transferring €13,092 there for a year of living. 90% of great professionals simply do not have this amount in free cash.
The path with Next Step Visa (No costs)
German law allows replacing a bank statement with an official employment contract for part-time work (Nebentätigkeit). We issue this document from our German partners before the visa, completely closing the financial barrier.
Your degree is already 4 points!
If your profession belongs to non-regulated ones (IT, marketing, engineering, design, economics, logistics), then the university confirmation in the ANABIN database automatically awards you 4 points out of the 6 required! The remaining 2 points you can easily close just with your age.
Checking the degree in the ANABIN database:
Make sure your university has an H+ status on the state portal: Go to ANABIN database (Germany).
