Can a student work while studying in Germany?

<p>Students from the EU/EEA (as well as students from Iceland, Lichtenstein, Norway, or Switzerland) have the same entitlement as German students and free access to the German job market. You can work up to 20 hours per week while studying. If you exceed this, you&rsquo;ll be required to pay into the German social security system, and there could be a negative impact on your studies.</p><p><strong>Students from outside the EU/EEA</strong></p><p>Non-EU/EEA students are also able to work in Germany alongside their studies, for 120 full days or 240 half days per year. If you take a job as a student assistant or research assistant at your university, this is usually not counted in your limit. You must notify the Alien Registration Office if you take up this type of work.</p>
