Aufenthaltserlaubnis zur Beschäftigung als Beamter Verlängerung beantragen

If you are employed as a civil servant by a German employer and have a residence permit to fulfill official duties in Germany, you can apply for an extension of your residence permit.

If you are employed as a civil servant by a German employer and are in Germany to fulfill your official duties, you generally have a temporary residence permit. You can apply for an extension of your residence permit if the validity of your residence permit expires and you wish to continue your service in Germany.

The same conditions apply for the extension as for the issue. This means that you must still be employed as a civil servant by a German employer and wish to stay in Germany to fulfill your official duties.

If your residence permit is extended, it will be limited in time again. The duration of the time limit depends on the planned duration of your employment.

The Federal Employment Agency does not need to be involved in the extension of your residence permit.

You may have been obliged to take part in an integration course when your residence permit was first issued. If this is the case, this must be taken into account when extending your residence permit. If you have not yet taken part in an integration course, the immigration authority may reject your application to extend your residence permit. If you have not yet completed the integration course, the residence permit will generally only be extended for one year at a time until you successfully complete it or provide proof that you have been integrated into society and social life in another way.

If you have been in possession of a residence permit for the performance of official duties with a German employer for three years, you are entitled to a permanent residence permit (settlement permit). This does not require you to have paid contributions to the statutory pension insurance scheme for at least 60 months or to be able to prove that you are entitled to comparable benefits.

EU citizens who are employed as civil servants by a German employer are not subject to the Residence Act, but to the Freedom of Movement Act/EU.
