Yes, as an international student in Germany, you are allowed to work part-time while pursuing your studies. Here are the key details:

Work Allowance for International Students in Germany:

- Non-EU/EEA Students:
You can work 120 full days or 240 half days per year (as per German regulations).
- During Semester Breaks:
You can work full time during semester breaks, provided you do not exceed the annual limit.
- Student Assistant/HiWi Jobs:
Work at your university (as a student assistant or research assistant) generally does not count towards your 120-day limit.
- Internships:
Mandatory internships (required as part of your course) are not included in this limit. However, voluntary internships are.

Conditions & Considerations:

- You do not need a separate work permit for these part-time jobs.
- You must inform the “Ausländerbehörde” (Foreigners’ Registration Office) if you want to work more than the allowed days.
- If you work beyond the allowed limit, you may require special permission.
- Your studies should remain your primary focus; working too many hours can affect your academic performance and visa status.

- Retail, cafes, restaurants
- Tutoring

Wages:

- The minimum wage in Germany is currently €12.41 per hour (as of 2024), but wages may vary depending on the job and location.
