Verify the requirements for your situation

Before you make a decision

  • Check the occupation and employer, not just national averages.
  • Verify recognition requirements with the competent authority.
  • Compare a real job offer with housing and everyday costs.
  • Confirm current work and residence requirements using official sources.
