No, you cannot apply for an EU Blue Card without a degree, as it is one of the major criteria. A foreign degree or a degree earned in the EU member state country you wish to work in is an essential EU Blue card requirement. Highly talented and skilled professionals with higher qualifications can apply for the blue card. To prove that the applicant has the required qualifications, one has to submit a diploma, degree, or certificate issued by authorized educational institutions. Germany is one such EU state country that requires a university degree for Germany's EU Blue card, except for IT specialists.
