Automated Anabin Check & German Degree Recognition

German work permits such as the EU Blue Card depend on the employee's degree being recognised by German authorities. For HR and global mobility teams, that means checking each foreign university and qualification against Anabin, the official recognition database. Done by hand, the process is slow and easy to get wrong: names on certificates rarely match database entries exactly, status codes need interpretation, and results end up in screenshots and spreadsheets. When a recognition issue appears only at filing stage, the permit route may need to change and start dates slip. For foreign university recognition Germany's authorities expect clear evidence, and informal checks make that harder to provide.

Jobbatical's automated Anabin check makes German degree recognition a standard step in every case. The employee uploads their degree, the details populate the platform's database, and the qualification is checked instantly against Anabin. The platform confirms whether the awarding university is recognised, assigns an H+ or H- status, and runs the degree comparability check Germany's permit rules depend on. The result is saved as a PDF and the recognition status is filled in on the case, so HR, the employee and our immigration specialists all work from the same record, with no waiting on the government website.

The outcome is faster, more predictable planning. Mobility teams see recognition risks on day one rather than after an application is filed, and can choose the right permit route before committing to a start date. An EU Blue Card degree check takes seconds instead of a manual search, and every outcome is backed by stored evidence. Where a degree is not recognised, Jobbatical's specialists advise on alternative routes so the move stays on track. For organisations hiring into Germany at scale, global mobility credential evaluation becomes a consistent, auditable part of the immigration process.
