Why Hungarian nurses choose German hospitals

No visa required

As a Hungarian EU citizen, you have full freedom of movement. No work permit, no visa application, no waiting for government approvals.

Automatic diploma recognition

Hungarian nursing diplomas earned after 2004 are automatically recognized in Germany under EU Directive 2005/36/EK. No equivalency exams, no Anerkennung delays.

3x salary increase

Hospital nurses in Germany earn EUR 3,500 to 4,500 per month, plus overtime bonuses and holiday allowances. That is roughly 3 times what you earn in Hungary.

Employer-funded German courses

Most German hospitals fund your German language training from A1 to B2, either before you arrive or on the job. No out-of-pocket cost.
