The Positive Lists

Request a free consultation today

There are two different positive lists that you can apply for; the Positive List for people with a higher education and the Positive List for skilled workers.

To qualify for these schemes, your job must be on one of the lists of professions experiencing a shortage of skilled or highly qualified professional.

It is important to note that both lists have specific requirements and conditions, and that applicants must meet the relevant criteria to be entitled to a residence and work permit.

We can help you apply and provide qualified advice under both schemes, and handle the correspondence with the immigration authorities.
