Estonia - Visas, Residency, Immigration & Documentation
Page: 2/2
Residency visas are available to foreign nationals interested in working in Estonia, who have a secure job offer from an employer in the country. A residency permit for employment is issued for the period of guaranteed employment by an Estonian employer, with a two year validation period. After two years the permit can be extended. The maximum period for extension is five years at a time.
In most cases, the Labor Market Board, Estonia's equivalent of America's Department of Labor, must approve the employment of a foreign national. For more information, visit www.tta.ee.
No immigration quota is imposed on aliens who are ethnic Estonians or citizens of either the EU, the US, Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, or Japan.
The Estonian Embassy web site contains extensive information on immigration and visa issues. Sample documents are also available to download (http://www.mig.ee/eng/residence/employment/).
