Hello,
I have a question about the following situation:
1- I was a student and my residence permit expires on 01.03.2023. I have already finished my studies on 01.10.2022.

2- I found a new job and applied for an EU Blue Card on 01.11.2022.

3- I received the electronic version of the ID card on 01/12/2022, so I can make an appointment to pick up the physical Blue Card.

4- The most important thing: I had to travel for some time and I will pick up the Blue Card on 01/02/2023.

Question: Will I get in trouble if I don’t pick up the card in December and postpone this until February (just before the student residence permit expires)?

  1. Contact your foreigners department and ask them. Letting the physical card sit with them for 3 months should not be a problem. Did you already get the appointment to pick it up for 01.02.2023 or do you just want to do it on that date?
