fast-track procedure
In short and in plain language
The fast-track procedure is a quick route for skilled workers from abroad.
The firm applies for the worker. The worker still lives abroad at that time.
The offices are then meant to decide faster. This covers recognition and the entry permit.
Definition
Short for the fast-track procedure for skilled workers under the German Residence Act. The employer applies for it at the immigration office on behalf of the skilled worker while the worker still lives abroad. Recognition, approval and visa are then meant to be decided faster.
