Working student essentials
What this Legal internship in Hamburg means for you: the pay rules, the social contributions, and what international students should check before applying.

Working student rulesSocial contributions
Mandatory internships are largely exempt from social contributions. Voluntary internships are treated like regular employment once they run long enough, so contributions usually apply.
