Internships give students an insight into the working world. Practical training can be
arranged as a requirement of the on-going course of study.
5. Sending applications
o Before you send it, check once more whether the papers are all there and
are free of errors, whether the address and contact person are correct and
whether the envelope has the proper stamp.
o Check by phone what happened to the application if you haven't heard
anything back from the employer after a while. That shows that you really
are interested.

ZAV Certificate:
Foreign students are allowed to take up work – and that also includes internships in
Germany if the Federal Employment Services (Bundesagentur für Arbeit –
represented by the ZAV) has given its agreement. This agreement is proven by an
official document with the official stamp of the ZAV. This issued agreement counts as
proof for legal employment and is necessary when applying for a visa/residence
permit. The visa/residence permit is issued by a German mission abroad
(embassy/consulate).
During your study period you may undertake an internship in Germany for a
maximum of 12 months. You may divide the 12 months into several internships (e.g.
3 months + 3 months + 6 months = 12 months).
We need following documents from you at the earliest in order to get a ZAV
certificate from Germany:
o Your resume
o An enrollment certificate signed/stamped from your home university or institute
(please contact us for the format)
o Invitation letter from the German university/company/institution clearly
indicating the internship package (minimum 600 Euros, or 360 Euros +
accommodation).
Should you lose interest in a student internship after submitting your application,
please inform us of this as soon as possible.
