PTE for Germany: visas, study & work

Whether PTE Academic is accepted for Germany— and the score you need — depends on what you're doing (study, a visa, or professional registration). Honest, sourced answers below.

PTE for German visas

PTE Academic is accepted by a growing number of German universities for English-taught programmes (Master's admission is commonly around 58–65), and German visa authorities accept PTE where your university does. For work, the EU Blue Card has no English-test requirement, and regulated professions require recognition of your qualifications and usually German-language proficiency for licensing — not PTE.
