Changing jobs is allowed, but in the early period of the card a change of employer usually needs authorisation from the authorities.
EU Blue Card holders are not locked to one employer for the whole permit, but the card is tied to qualifying employment. During the initial period of the card, changing employer or significant changes to your job typically require prior approval from the migration authorities.
After that early period, the rules are more flexible, though any new role must still meet the Blue Card salary and qualification conditions. Always confirm the current notification or approval requirement before switching jobs so your status stays valid.
