A work visa allows people entering into an employment relationship with an employer abroad to live and work legally in that country. In most countries, the application is assessed together with a job offer or contract, proof of professional qualifications and, where necessary, diploma recognition documents.
Who is a work visa for?
Professionals who have received a job offer from an employer abroad, those who want to work in skilled occupations, and students who have completed their studies abroad and want to use their post-graduation right to work can explore work visa options.
