Van der Elst visa
Van der Elst Visa for Non-EU nationals posted to Germany by their company on a short-term assignment
Under Articles 59 and 60 of the EEC Treaty, a company registered in an EU member state may employ staff (Non-EU citizen) in another EU member state for the purpose of providing services for a limited period of time.
Accordingly, employees that are Non-EU nationals and have their habitual residence in the United Kingdom may provide services in Germany for a limited period without having to obtain a work permit first, provided they hold the appropriate entry clearance visa for Germany.
