Hi all. I am currently living in Germany, Baden-Württemberg and I have found a job with gross annual income at 85.000 euros, which will be increased at 100.000 euros after 6 months. My starting day was 20 August and the first salary is expected at 25 September.

From the company they said:

Quote:

Our tax accountant is informed and has tried to prepare everything. To transfer your salary, you need an insurance in Germany. That is part of the set-up.

Could you send me the conformation letter from the company you have chosen, please.

So, I should find a German insurance company and I should have a confirmation letter from them. In that point I need your help.

From the first googling, I read that if the gross annual income is less than 60.000 euros, the public insurance is obligatory and everything is done by your company. But in my case, I can choose what insurance company I want but everything should be done by me.

Since not trusting insurance companies, but insurance is obligatory in Germany, what is my cheapest possible choice, just for being legal? And how all the process is done? Everything is done on the web and I just receive my health card in my living place? Does it matter that I still live in a hotel, without having rented an apartment and without registration in my local municipality?

Also, the first months that my gross annual income will be 85000, how many euros will be my net monthly income? Just 3900 euros, or it is possible to get in 4200-4300 euros? I am single 30 years old.

Thanks in advance.
