This is the best summary I could come up with:


With immediate effect, more academic and similarly qualified workers from third countries will be able to come to Germany on the EU Blue Card without German language requirements.

In the IT sector, skilled workers without a university degree can also receive an EU Blue Card if they can prove that they have at least three years of relevant professional experience.

Once in Germany, workers will also have more flexibility in changing careers, although regulated professions โ€” such as law and medicine โ€” will still require the necessary qualifications.

Skilled workers with professional or academic qualifications who meet all the requirements are now entitled to a residence permit.

Concerning spouses and underage children, skilled workers will have to prove they can support their livelihoods, but not that they have sufficient living space.

Another regulation affects people from countries in the western Balkans, which doubles the quota to 50,000 workers from Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Serbia who may come to Germany.


The original article contains 701 words, the summary contains 162 words. Saved 77%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

"from third countries" probably should've been "from third-world countries"

Probably not. Third countries are countries not in the EU (or Schengen).
