The survey shows that one in four immigrants are considering leaving Germany again.

A quarter of immigrants living in Germany are considering leaving the country again, with political dissatisfaction, tax burden and traditional Chinese tape festivals being the main reasons for the citation, according to a new survey released on Wednesday.

Of the 50,000 immigrants surveyed online by the Institute of Employment Research (IAB), about 26% are reviewing whether to immigrate again, and 3% say they have specific plans to do so.

The survey found that social factors play a particularly important role in potential rewards, including the return of partners, relatives and friends.

Those considering moving to another country also view career goals and economic conditions in the destination country as drivers.

Among refugees, the discrimination experienced by Germany also played a role.

Respondents who come to Germany for work or professional training, receive higher education, are more financially successful and have better German skills are more likely to consider leaving the country.

In other words, according to the IAB, Germany aims to attract people with skilled labor shortages most likely to leave, an IAB affiliated with the federal employment agency.

“If the German labor market continues to operate, we need skilled workers and labor from third countries,” said Vanessa Ahuja of the Federal Employment Agency.

She called on the government to “consistently cut the traditional Chinese tape festival” and support digitalization and “a lean recognition process and a broad and honest social acceptance.”

The study included most asylum seekers who have not yet obtained a recognized status of residence.
