Customs recipient in Limburg: Seven workers without valid papers!

On May 22, 2025, there was a comprehensive control through the financial control of the undeclared work of the Gießen main customs office on a construction site in Limburg/Lahn. Of the nine drywall workers, only two were able to show their valid residence permits and work permits, which led to the immediate arrest of seven Kosovar men between the ages of 22 and 54.

The customs officers accompanied a worker to his accommodation in order to procure the missing documents. In addition to real IDs, they also discovered three fake passes that were secured as evidence. In addition, a forbidden jumping knife was found in one of the workers, which led to another advertisement. All seven men are now suspected of illegal employment, while their employer is also being investigated. Your ID documents were handed over to the responsible immigration office that decides on your further stay.
