The EU Blue Card is granted to highly qualified professionals for work and living in the EU. Obtaining a Blue Card opens the way to a successful career in the European Union. Business owners are looking forward to employing professionals with high-level skills. For specialists with higher education, getting a Blue Card is a real opportunity to gain a strong foothold in the EU.
The Blue Card enables to obtain both a work permit and a residence permit for citizens from Asia, Africa and the former Soviet Union. On the one hand, it is convenient for a migrant specialist who can choose a country in the EU and a place to work. On the other hand, it is convenient for an employer to invite a professional of a high level.
The programme is supported by 25 EU Member States: all except the Kingdom of Denmark, Ireland and Great Britain. Each country has its own rules concerning blue cards. The validity period of the permit is from 1 to 4 years (with the possibility of renewal).
