In order to meet the requirements for a student visa, many internationals opt for what's known as a blocked bank account, which only allows you to withdraw a certain amount of money per month. This academic year, students need to deposit 11,904 annually (amounting to 992 per month) to cover their living expenses. Previously, the threshold was set at 11,208 per year or 934 per month.
Germany's statutory minimum wage is set to go up once again at the start of next year, meaning an automatic pay rise for millions of workers. By January 2025, the minimum wage will rise to 12.82/hour, offering a monthly gross salary of 2,222 for those in full-time work, or 1,111 for those working 20 hours per week.
From January 2025, students can earn up to 556 per month in this type of job, working approximately 43.3 hours per month at the new minimum wage.
