ITALY WORK PERMIT

Italy is an EU member, hence no specific visa or permission is needed for foreign nationals to work in Italy. Italy allows citizens of its member states to work without restriction. A Nulla Osta, or Italy work visa, is required for any employee who is not a citizen of the EU or EEA. Work permits in Italy are classified as Long-Stay permits, which are also known as National or D-Visas. The Italian work visa just permits entry into the nation. They must get a residency permit when they arrive in Italy to remain there.

Application Process for Italy Work Permit

When a worker receives an employment offer in Italy, the procedure for obtaining a Nulla Osta starts. The actions required to obtain the work visa are as follows:

  1. At the immigration office in their particular Italian province, the employer applies for a work visa.
  2. The company will tell the Italian embassy or consulate where the worker will apply for a work visa and deliver the employee the work permit once it is approved.
  3. The worker will get the Italy visa application form, fill it out, gather the required paperwork, and apply in person at the Italian consulate or embassy.
  4. The employee will have six months from the time the application is approved by Italian authorities to pick up the visa and go to Italy.
  5. After arriving in Italy, the employee has to file for a second stay permission within eight days. This document is called a permesso di soggiorno, or authorization to reside. In Italy, the application is available at the local post office.
  6. Depending on the terms of the job contract, an Italy work visa may be valid for up to two years; however, it may be renewed for up to five years.

LATVIA WORK PERMIT

Depending on how long they plan to remain, all foreign visitors will require one of the following visas:

1. Airport transit visa (Type A):

Foreign nationals who must travel via Latvia’s airport transit zone to reach another destination are granted this visa.

2. Short-term or Schengen Type C visa:

Another name for this visa is a United visa. It permits a foreign national to remain on Schengen Area territory.

3. The long-stay visa, or type D:

Foreign nationals entering Latvia who need to stay for more than 90 days within six months are awarded a long-stay visa. During this period, the holder of this visa is also permitted to travel to other Schengen Area nations.

For the duration that the visa is valid, all three of these visas are available as single-entry, double-entry, and multiple-entry options.

PORTUGAL WORK PERMIT

Portugal is an EU (European Union) member. Without a permit, citizens of other EU members can work in Portugal. They do not require a visa either, but after arriving in Portugal for work, they must apply for a resident card within six months. For travel to Portugal, non-EU nationals must get a visa from their home country. There are three categories of resident visas in Portugal:

           Type 1: Visa for permanent residence
          Type 2: Visa for resettlement for family members                          of Portuguese nationals
          Type 3: Resettlement visa for family member                             Portuguese citizens living there permanently

The employee is permitted to visit Portugal once they have obtained the necessary visa. They will have to change the visa to a residency permit within four months. To lawfully work in Portugal, you need an extra permit.

Application Process for Portugal Work Permit

Your employees need to apply through the Portuguese Consulate in their home country to receive a visa. They are required to submit the aforementioned documents. Portuguese authorities may need two to three months to review the application and grant a visa. Portugal will accept this visa as proof of entry. The employee must also apply for a work permit after receiving their visa. Workers with specialized talents from non-EU nations will have an easier time getting a work permit. The application for a work permit may be filed by the employer or the employee. The Serviço de Estrangeiros e Fronteiras (SEF), also known as the Regional Directorate or the Delegation of the Portuguese Immigration and Borders Service, will handle it in any case. The aforementioned documents need to be sent with the application. A work permit may require up to sixty days to process. The employee might go to Portugal to start working after securing a work permit and visa. The SEF will issue them a residency card; the Director-General of Taxes (Direcçaõ-Geral dos Impostos) branch will issue them a tax code; and they will need to register with Social Security.

LITHUANIA WORK PERMIT

An increasing number of foreigners have been visiting Lithuania in search of employment in recent years. For EU nationals, living and working in Lithuania is relatively easy; however, foreign nationals need to go through multiple procedures to obtain employment.

A national of a third country typically needs to obtain one of the following documents to work in Lithuania:

  1. An employer in Lithuania extends a job offer to a foreign national.
  2. The employer receives the pertinent paperwork from the prospective employee.
  3. The Lithuanian Labour Exchange receives the work permit application from the employer.

OTHER SCHENGEN COUNTRIES WORK PERMIT

Every Schengen member state has different visa regulations, which are specific to each nation. To meet the labor needs of their respective nations and address job shortages, the European countries have established employment visa programs.

As a result, each country’s labor needs have a significant impact on the requirements and criteria for employment visas as well as the application process.

It is strongly recommended that you apply for a European work visa at least two months before your intended travel date to the Schengen nation where you intend to work. The reason for this is that applying for an employment visa requires six weeks of processing time at European embassies. Up to 12 weeks may be added to the processing time in exceptional circumstances.
