German has a long history of rich traditions, religions, customs, and art which is older than 1000 years. Germans have a high priority on punctuality. Many foreign nationals dream of going to Germany. Germany provides permanent residence permit to non-European citizens, which is valid for five years. This permit is also known as a Settlement permit. A Settlement permit allows you to stay in Germany forever. This permit is not the same as German citizenship or just having a passport. But actually, the permanent residence offers much more security than having a Temporary residence permit. This temporary PR is called ‘Aufenthaltserlaubnis’ in the German language.

Check your Eligibility to Germany through Y-Axis Germany Immigration point’s calculator.
