Immigration law is a special legal discipline that deals with the entry, residence, and integration of foreigners in a particular country. A complex legal framework has evolved to regulate foreigners' entry, residence, consolidation of the right of residence, family reunification, or their departure or expulsion, and outline the corresponding rights and obligations.
In Germany the Residence Act and the Freedom of Movement Act/EU (in addition to numerous other international laws) regulate who may enter and reside in Germany and under what conditions they may do so. Regulations may further specify the necessary requirements for issuing visas and residence permits, the conditions for taking up employment, and the requirements for naturalisation.
Immigration law is closely linked to other areas of law, such as employment law, social welfare law, and criminal law. For this reason, foreigners who wish to live and work in Germany must comply with a variety of legal frameworks to ensure that their residence and employment is in accordance with the law.

An immigration lawyer specialises in advising and representing clients in the field of immigration law. Their work is centered around the immigration of foreigners to a particular country, in particular the application of residence permits, advice on naturalisation, and the legal representation of clients in legal proceedings.
Immigration lawyers commonly advise on the immigration of skilled workers, right of residence, gaining employment, founding a company, naturalisation, necessary language skills for integration, family reunification, consolidation of residence titles, visas, and the Blue Card EU.
Further assistance can be provided for the recognition of foreign educational and professional qualifications as well as the recognition of other foreign documents and certificates.
