Indian-Germans are people of Indian decent who live in Germany. In the beginning of 2000, nearly 40,000 Indian-Germans lived in Germany. Their history mostly dates back to the 1960s, when nurses from Kerala were hired by German hospitals.[citation needed] In the 1980s asylum seekers mainly from the North Indian state of Punjab came to Germany.German companies hired many Indians as engineers or computer scientists. In 2001, the German chancellor Gerhard Schroeder issued the German green card for IT-professionals, which brought another 20000 Indians to Germany. Today, most Indian-Germans are middle-class professionals like doctors, engineers, professors or software developers.
