Germany Plans To Simplify Visa Application Process For Indian IT Workers
(CTN NEWS) – GERMANY – While the nation struggles with a scarcity of skilled labor, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz stated on Sunday that his administration wants to make it simpler for information technology specialists from India to secure work visas in Germany.
The legal environment needs to be improved, according to Scholz, for Germany to become more appealing to software developers and people with IT development abilities.
During a visit to Bengaluru, India’s high-tech center, he told reporters, “We want to make the issue of visas easier.”
Along with modernizing the law, Scholz added, “we also want to reform the entire bureaucratic procedure.”
