What clients say
I had an amazing experience with My Relocator while applying for my EU Blue Card in Germany. What truly stood out was their prompt communication and genuinely friendly, human approach. I always felt informed, supported, and confident at every step. If you’re transitioning from an Opportunity Card to the EU Blue Card, I highly recommend My Relocator.
My Relocator explained the Blue Card application process clearly and in detail. Their support helped me and my employer understand what to do and get everything done without confusion or delays.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. I have an Opportunity Card and received a job contract. What should I do next?
Once you have a signed job contract, the next step is usually to prepare for the appropriate employment-based residence application with the responsible immigration authority. Depending on your individual situation, this may be an EU Blue Card or another employment-based residence permit.
If you are in Berlin, My Relocator can first check whether your situation fits the scope of our administrative application-support service. Where supported, we help organise the application documents, coordinate required information with your employer, review the prepared materials within our administrative scope, and support the relevant submission steps.
My Relocator does not determine which residence title you qualify for and does not provide legal advice. Eligibility and immigration decisions are made by the competent authority.
2. What documents do I need to prepare for an EU Blue Card application in Berlin?
For a Berlin EU Blue Card application, you will need to prepare the documents required by the Berlin Immigration Office for your individual situation. The Berlin Immigration Office publishes the current document requirements on its official EU Blue Card page.
Where your situation fits My Relocator’s service scope, we help organise the documents relevant to the application, coordinate required information with your employer, and review the prepared materials for completeness, consistency, and formatting within our administrative scope.
3. How does the EU Blue Card application process work in Berlin?
The Berlin EU Blue Card process generally involves submitting the application and supporting documents, review by the competent authority, and any further steps requested by the authority. The current procedure is published by the Berlin Immigration Office.
Where your situation fits My Relocator’s service scope, we support the administrative preparation and coordination of the relevant application steps.
My Relocator does not control the authority’s review process, processing time, appointments, or immigration decision.
4. What does my employer need to do during an EU Blue Card application?
Your employer typically needs to provide the employment-related information and documents required for the EU Blue Card application. Your employer does not necessarily have to manage the entire administrative application process.
Where your situation fits My Relocator’s service scope, we coordinate the administrative preparation with you and your employer, helping organise the required employer-related information and documents for the application.
Your employer remains responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the information and documents they provide.
5. What if my employer is not handling my EU Blue Card or Residence Permit application?
If your employer provides the employment-related information and documents required from their side but does not manage the full administrative application process, My Relocator may still be able to support you.
Where your situation fits our service scope, we coordinate the administrative preparation with you and your employer, organise the relevant application materials, and support the applicable submission steps.
My Relocator does not provide legal representation and does not replace you or your employer in their respective roles in the application process.
6. Can My Relocator get me a faster Blue Card appointment or accelerate the processing time?
No. My Relocator cannot accelerate or guarantee EU Blue Card processing times, appointments, or decisions by the Berlin Immigration Office, the Berlin Business Immigration Service (BIS), or another competent authority.
My Relocator’s role is limited to administrative application preparation and coordination. Processing times, requests for additional information, appointments, and immigration decisions are determined by the competent authority.
7. Can My Relocator coordinate my EU Blue Card application with my employer?
Yes. Employer coordination can form part of My Relocator’s administrative support for an EU Blue Card or supported employment-based Residence Permit application.
Where relevant, we can coordinate the preparation of employer-related information and documents, organise the information required from both you and your employer, and support the administrative preparation of the application.
My Relocator does not act as your employer, legal representative, or immigration authority.
8. Can My Relocator review my EU Blue Card application documents before submission?
Yes. As part of our administrative application-support service, My Relocator can review prepared EU Blue Card or supported Residence Permit application materials for completeness, consistency, and formatting within the scope of the service.
This is an administrative document review. It does not constitute legal review, legal advice, or a determination that you meet the legal requirements for an EU Blue Card or another residence title.
9. Can My Relocator also support residence-permit applications for my spouse or children?
My Relocator can check during the Application Support Check whether administrative support relating to accompanying family members falls within the scope of our service for your situation.
My Relocator does not assess entitlement to family reunification and does not provide legal advice about residence permits or visas for family members. Requirements and decisions relating to family members are determined by the competent authorities.
10. How do I know whether My Relocator can support my situation?
The first step is the Application Support Check. You provide basic information about your current residence status, signed employment contract, location, expected application authority, and the type of administrative support you need.
My Relocator then checks whether your situation fits the scope of our administrative application-support service.
The Application Support Check is a service-scope assessment only. It is not legal advice and does not determine whether you qualify for an EU Blue Card or another residence title.
11. Is My Relocator a law firm or immigration-law provider?
No. My Relocator is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice or legal representation.
My Relocator provides administrative application preparation and coordination support for EU Blue Card and selected employment-based Residence Permit applications that fit our service scope. For applications submitted via the Berlin Business Immigration Service (BIS), we support the applicant and employer with the administrative steps and coordination according to the process defined by BIS.
My Relocator does not provide legal interpretations or advise on legal rights or obligations. Immigration eligibility assessments, legal interpretations, and immigration decisions remain with the competent authorities or qualified legal professionals.
