The EU Blue Card, akin to the US Green Card, is aimed at highly skilled workers from outside the EU, with ownership offering work and residence rights across EU member states. Since its establishment in 2009, recent enhancements in 2021 sought to attract more qualified talents. Germany stands out, issuing 69,000 of the 89,000 total Blue Cards in 2023, largely due to its active promotion and favorable conditions, overshadowing other countries like Poland and France. Notably, it allows holders to search for jobs if they lose their employment, enhancing its appeal.
Germany has positioned itself as a prime destination for skilled labor, actively promoting the EU Blue Card, which has resulted in a surge in its issuance.
The 2021 reforms made the EU Blue Card more attractive through better terms and conditions, which in turn spurred a significant increase in its issuance across the EU.
