Even if it is part of your contract, I’d still suggest you talk with your boss about your plans beforehand. Just so both sides are in the same boat and your employer can also plan ahead, knowing that you’ll be gone for two months next year. Otherwise they might not even allow you to take all your time at once.

That’s something that isn’t even guaranteed by law in Germany. But it’s part of the contract very often (with restrictions like the company can make you take your vacation days and such). So yes, check first before you start „saving“.

Afaik by law vacation days never expire in Germany, except if the employer explicitly tells you they do. So yeah, check your contract. But if the contract doesn’t mention it, and you did not get a written warning, your unused vacation days are usable forever.

My contract explicitly states that they don’t expire. So I never had to check the law and just assumed it’s the other way round. 🙂
