Werkstudent privilege

Werkstudentenprivileg ·Uitgevoerd door Gesetzliche Krankenkassen

The Werkstudentenprivileg makes student jobs cheap: if you stay at or under 20 hours per week during lecture periods, your job is exempt from health, long-term-care and unemployment insurance — you pay only the 9.3% pension contribution. More is allowed at night, on weekends and in semester breaks, up to 26 weeks per year above 20 hours. Minijobs up to €603 per month (2026) run on a separate, largely contribution-free track.

Wie komt in aanmerking

  • Enrolled, with your studies remaining your main occupation
  • At most 20 hours per week during lecture periods — more only at night, on weekends or in breaks (above 20 hours: max 26 weeks/year)
  • Non-EU students: 140 full or 280 half days per year, or up to 20 hours per week (§ 16b AufenthG)
  • EU students: no immigration-law work limits

Zo vraag je het aan

Nothing to apply for — your employer settles you as a Werkstudent in payroll; keep your enrollment certificate ready.
