Pros & Cons
Pro
Con
- Immigration
- For residents of an EU country, immigration to Germany is easy, requiring very little paperwork.
- Healthcare
- The system is considered one of the best in the world, with over 92% of the population having access to statutory healthcare.
- Children
- Government finances about one-third of the costs of children. Public education is free to all residents and parents can receive child benefits.
- Immigration
- Citizens outside of the EU will find the immigration process both restrictive and selective.
- Childcare
- Due to a shortage of state-subsidized day care centres, parents can spend up to 6 months looking for a private, more costly option.
- Language
- All immigrants must complete 900 hours of German language and culture instruction before they are eligible to become permanent German citizens.
