Work Visa Guide
This guide provides a clear overview of the work visa process, broken down into simple, manageable steps.
What is a Work Visa ?
Your Journey Begins With Visa Expertise.
A work visa is an official document that grants foreign nationals legal permission to be employed and receive compensation in another country. Unlike tourist or business visas, a work visa allows you to be paid for your services by a company in the host nation. These visas are often tied to a specific job, employer, and location. The duration can range from short-term assignments to long-term positions, with many offering renewal options or a pathway to permanent residency.
