Thank you for your question. I’d be happy to provide some insights on remaining in Europe after completing your Master's degree. If you are considering Germany, Portugal, or Spain, each country offers different pathways to remain and work after your studies. Here are some options based on your goals: 1. *Germany*: After completing your Master's degree in Germany, you can apply for an 18-month residence permit to search for a job related to your field of study. Once you find employment, you can switch to an EU Blue Card or a work visa, which could eventually lead to permanent residency. 2. *Portugal*: In Portugal, students who finish their degree may stay for up to 12 months to look for work or start a business. Similar to Germany, you would need to transition to a work visa or a residence permit for highly qualified professionals once you secure employment. 3. *Spain*: Spain also allows graduates to apply for a "job search" residence permit for up to 12 months after graduation. Once you have secured a job, you could apply for a work visa, and after a few years, you may be eligible for permanent residency. Regarding the *digital nomad visa* you mentioned, it's a good option for staying in Europe if you plan to work remotely. However, these visas typically have specific requirements, such as proof of remote employment or freelance work, and may not directly lead to permanent residency. If your long-term goal is to settle in Europe, securing a work contract post-graduation and transitioning to a residency permit would be a more straightforward path. Let me know if you need further information on any specific country or visa option. I’d be happy to assist!
