Overview

In very limited circumstances, they can be issued for salary ranges below EUR 30,000 a year.

The work permit can be issued to the applicant for the occupation specified on the permit. It is issued for an initial period of two years and can be renewed for a further three years. The work permit can be issued indefinitely after a period of five years.

Categories of Work Permit Scheme

There are two categories of occupations under which the Work Permit Scheme can be applied for:

• The annual salary is EUR 30,000 a year or more (excluding bonuses). In this case, the work permit is available for all qualified occupations, other than those which are contrary to the public interest.
• For salary ranges less than EUR 30,000 a year, only a very limited number of occupations will be considered for issuance of a work permit.

In either case, work permits will not be considered for any job categories specified in the ineligible job categories list.
