Hallo! I recently received my work permit, which states that I can only do training at my training company and cannot do any additional work. However, I was expecting to be allowed part-time employment for a maximum of 10 hrs/wk as stated on this website – [https://service.berlin.de/dienstleistung/328338/](https://service.berlin.de/dienstleistung/328338/)

“The residence permit entitles the holder to employment (regardless of training) for a maximum of 10 hours per week. Self-employment is not allowed.”

Is there a possibility for me to work these 10 hours per week besides my Ausbildung? how do I change that? I’m doing my training in a Hotel.

Thank you!!!

    It means that beyond your training you can work up to 10 hours as dependant employee for another company than the Hotel, but you cannot freelance as e.g. TickTocker.

    If it’s phrased exactly like that (you are not allowed to do any additional work), then no.

    >how do I change that

    Contact your Ausländerbehörde and ask them.

  3. Just ask them and cite the specific law.
