Establishment ID before any visa
We have our CR. What must we get before applying for staff visas?
The situation
Companies need an Establishment ID with the Ministry of Interior, which requires a valid CR and commercial licence.
The law
- Ministry of Interior Establishment ID service: Company immigration record needed before visas and residence permits; needs a valid CR and licence
