- PaulHoule 10y agoI lived in Germany for a year and had all sorts of dealings with banks, the government, and even got married, and I didn't find it much harder than it is in the states.
- elliotec 10y agoEveryone doesn't speak English in Berlin, but most business and tech conversations can be English. Government is a completely different story and there won't be an ounce of English in those interactions.
- Kliment 10y agoGovernment interactions in English are functionally impossible. I'm happy to help out with stuff like that (tax stuff, company formation stuff, work permits, citizenship, any other related bullshit) for anyone moving to Germany. I had someone help me like this when I moved here and I'm happy to pay it forward.
