Hello Sean, I am very grateful to you and your team for the fantastic support with our move to Germany. I had almost given up hope at one point, but thanks to Progedo's dedication, we achieved our goal. They were extremely professional, helpful, and available around the clock. I can highly recommend Progedo to anyone planning a move to Germany, as they proved to be exceptionally efficient – in my case, even 100% efficient.
PROGEDO was invaluable to me in obtaining my Blue Card and permanent residence permit. They provided professional and friendly support in submitting the necessary documents to the authorities. I highly recommend their services to anyone wishing to settle in Germany.
I had a good experience with Progedo. The service was fast and friendly, and they even accompanied me to the LEA, which was very helpful.
There was a minor issue with errors in the application, but overall I am satisfied with the support and can recommend it. I will use their services again in the near future.
I learned about Progedo through a friend's recommendation. Throughout the entire process, I was kept well-informed, and everything was made as easy as possible by providing me with a clear checklist containing all the necessary documents, as well as relevant websites and links.
I worked with Rebekka Budich, who supported me every step of the way. As an expat, this process can be quite stressful, but Rebekka helped me enormously by always communicating clearly and proactively guiding me through all the changes.
What was particularly positive was how much security the accompaniment of a competent person to the appointments gave me – especially since I saw that most of the other applicants were left to their own devices.
At the end of this process, I am deeply grateful to the entire Progedo team and especially to Rebekka for their outstanding support and professionalism.
I had a very good experience with the relocation agency PROGEDO. They assisted me in preparing and submitting the necessary documents for my visa in Serbia and my residence permit in Germany. Communication was smooth, and they were responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. PROGEDO's support made the move much smoother overall.

Contract award
The offer includes a link that allows you to start the project. Our back office will create the project in our Client Box (PROGEDO's own server, located on our premises). All necessary tasks will be defined here with a clear division of responsibilities. Employees and HR will be invited to the Client Box, and from then on, everyone involved in the project will have access to communication, status updates, and all relevant documents.
Processing by our relocation experts
Within 24 hours of order placement, the employee will be contacted, our tasks and the client box will be explained, and we will begin the relocation process. PROGEDO provides the employee with two points of contact: the immigration specialist for visa and residence permit matters, and the relocation consultant for all tasks at their new residence in Germany.
Relocation successfully completed
Once all tasks are completed and checked off in the client's account, a final meeting is held with the employee. The outcome is then communicated to the client. Following this, we issue the final invoice and close the project in our client account.
A relocation agency supports its clients, usually human resources managers, in the preparation and implementation of a relocation, relieving them of time and cost. Relocation can either be incurred through the temporary assignment of an employee abroad, but due to the shortage of skilled workers, it is becoming increasingly important to offer relocation services to applicants from abroad in order to attract them to your company in Germany.
How does a relocation order work?
After contacting the HR department or the applicant to analyze the initial situation, a needs analysis is conducted with the employee concerned after the contract has been awarded. This forms the basis for the creation of an individually tailored relocation and immigration service to ensure optimal support for the client.
How much does relocation actually cost?
Our packages can be customized to meet the needs and wishes of our clients. Fees for necessary translations and administrative fees may be added to our service costs. For more detailed information, click on “Make an inquiry”
What else does PROGEDO offer?
PROGEDO sees itself as a holistic service provider. We combine immigration and relocation into a comprehensive process. Employees who wish to move to or within Germany will find a service provider with us who supports them in applying for the necessary residence permit, helps them find accommodation and settle in, and assists with converting their driver's license.
What does PROGEDO not offer as a professional relocation agency?
As a professional relocation agency, we do not offer legal advice within the meaning of Section 2 Paragraph 1 of the Relocation Act (RDG). We support our clients through every step of the relocation process to Germany, drawing on our experience. Naturally, we cooperate with renowned and highly specialized immigration lawyers and maintain an extensive network of partners.
Since 1995, the founders Jörg Holsten and Frank Faggo have developed PROGEDO into one of the largest owner-managed relocation agencies in Germany and an internationally active mobility provider.
Companies and private clients value PROGEDO as a competent and reliable partner. Our offices serve clients throughout Germany. For visa and immigration matters, we have an experienced immigration team in Berlin, led by Theresa Walther.
Our local staff members empathetically support your immigration needs and are particularly committed to providing the necessary information on visa applications and residence requirements. However, according to the German Legal Services Act, we are not authorized to provide legal advice. Should legal advice become necessary, we work with competent, independent attorneys and will be happy to refer you to them.
