Visa and work permits

Eisner & Dwyer is one of the leading providers of visa application and work permit services for Germany.

Due to a lack of IT specialists and engineers in Germany, many companies have an urgent need for the relevant specialists from overseas. Among our client base are some of the largest international IT service providers, deputing their employees long term or temporarily to Germany.

We provide full-service support for the entire visa application process, from supporting the employee (and their dependents) through the employment visa application process at the local consulate, up to supporting him with the application of the work permit and the registration at the local authorities after arrival in Germany.

Our primary aim is to ensure that each individual visa and work permit application is processed as quickly and efficiently as possible. We typically achieve a visa-application within only 2-4 weeks, rather than the official 2-3 months, as indicated by the consulates. In particular in the case of highly qualified employees e.g. IT specialists and engineers, speed is usually of the essence.

With personal access to our online-database, our clients have real-time access to the current status of the individual applications, which also enables an efficient planning of the relocation (travelling and start dates etc.).

Completing our service offering, we also offer support in the following areas:

consultency services relating to short term visa applications, required for business trips, training attendance etc.

support with the transfer of European and non-European employees to other Schengen/EU-states, based on E101.

full relocation assistance, in cooperation with our relocation partner RelocPlus.

consultency relating to the agreement between German and India on Social Insurance, effective since October 2009 (IN/DE 101) and the handling of social insurance in the case of deputation

assistance with company setup when targeting the German market
