🇩🇪 Germany and 🇯🇵 Japan: no single points score
Neither country grades students on one score like Canada or Australia. Settlement is linked to a job, salary, language and years of work instead.
After graduation
🇩🇪 Up to 18 months to find a qualified job (job-seeker permit)
🇯🇵 Up to 1 year to job-hunt (Designated Activities)
Main work route
🇩🇪 EU Blue Card: salary of €50,700 a year, or €45,934.20 for shortage occupations and recent graduates (2026)
🇯🇵 Work visa, or the Highly Skilled Professional points system
Long-term settlement
🇩🇪 Settlement permit after 21 months on a Blue Card with German B1, or 27 months with basic German
🇯🇵 Highly Skilled Professional: permanent residence after 3 years at 70 points, or 1 year at 80 points
Language
🇩🇪 German helps a lot, and B1 speeds up settlement
🇯🇵 Japanese (JLPT) earns points and helps in most jobs
Rules and thresholds change. Confirm current figures with the German Federal Employment Agency, the Immigration Services Agency of Japan, or an OEVS counsellor.
💡 Insight: CRS scores for Canada vary by draw (cut-offs differ by draw type; a provincial nomination adds 600 points). Australia's pass mark is 65 points, but invitations usually need more, depending on occupation. Both systems favor younger, educated, English-proficient applicants. Book a consultation to choose your best pathway.
⚠️ Disclaimer: This tool gives an indicative estimate based on the core factors you enter — it is not immigration advice and does not guarantee eligibility, ITA, or visa approval. Real CRS/points assessments account for additional factors (job offers, spouse points, exact IELTS band per skill, occupation ceilings, document verification) that this calculator does not capture. Your actual score must be confirmed by a licensed MARN migration agent before you rely on it for any decision.
