Does the applicant need a job offer, employer, sponsor, transfer relationship or other employer involvement? What is important about that employer relationship?
For salaried employment, the employer must apply for an employment permit first; the residence application can be submitted only after a positive decision. The employee first-application checklist also requires the employer’s Chamber of Commerce extract, Labor Register record, signed employer declaration and signed guarantee declaration. If the employer is a sole proprietor or private person, it additionally asks for a Tax Inspectorate statement of fixed taxable income of at least XCG 36,000 from two years earlier.
