Workers from Africa

You can apply from any African country — Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda, Senegal, Côte d’Ivoire, Cameroon, South Africa and beyond. WorkersFromAsia welcomes skilled African workers across trades, healthcare, logistics, hospitality and technical roles, as long as you have genuine experience and the willingness to relocate.

Africa has a large, fast-growing pool of qualified welders, electricians, drivers, nurses, care workers, construction tradespeople and technicians. Europe has the demand. We connect the two ethically: registration is completely free, you choose your own country of origin, and workers are never charged recruitment fees — a core ILO fair-recruitment principle. Employers cover the cost of hiring and sponsorship.

The path is clear and transparent. First, create a free profile with your trade, experience and documents. Next, you are matched to European jobs and can apply directly — or employers discover you in the candidate registry and invite you to interview. Once an employer makes an offer, your work-visa application begins.

From there, our team and licensed partners guide every step: document checks, the right visa pathway for your destination country, the appointment process, and finally travel and arrival. You follow your status through the whole pipeline — vetted, shortlisted, interview, visa approved, flight booked — so you always know what happens next.

You do not have to navigate European immigration alone. Depending on your destination and profession, your route may be the EU Opportunity Card (a points-based job-search visa), an employer-sponsored skilled worker visa such as Germany’s Fachkräfteeinwanderungsgesetz, the Netherlands combined work-and-residence permit (GVVA), or work permits in Romania, Poland and other EU countries.

For each hire, the correct work-visa pathway is identified and processed together with you — including paperwork, attestations and timelines. A typical placement takes around 10–30 weeks depending on the destination country’s visa processing speed and how quickly your documents are ready.

The strongest demand right now includes registered nurses, aged-care workers and nursing assistants; welders, pipe fitters, CNC operators and steelworkers; electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, carpenters and scaffolders; truck and bus drivers, warehouse and logistics staff; plus wind-turbine technicians and solar installers. These roles are needed across Germany, the Netherlands, Romania, Poland and the wider EU.

Whatever your trade, you can search live roles, apply in minutes, and build a verified profile that helps European employers trust your experience — improving your chances of a sponsored offer.
