Limits of the record

    Does the applicant need a job offer, employer, sponsor, transfer relationship or other employer involvement? What is important about that employer relationship?

    Employer involvement is required: the application includes an offer/appointment letter or contract of employment, and the employing company's documents - certificate of business registration (certificate of incorporation, certificate to commence business, business code), GIPC registration certificate, current company tax clearance certificate and previous-year audited accounts - plus a letter of support from a Ministry, Department or Agency.

    What are the few decisive professional characteristics of the pathway: occupation, qualifications, experience, salary, skill level, shortage status, labour-market condition or equivalent?

    No occupation, qualification level, experience, salary, skill-level or shortage threshold is published for this permit. What is distinctive is employer sponsorship: the employing company supplies its registration, tax and audited-account documents and a letter of support from a Ministry, Department or Agency, together with an offer/appointment letter or contract of employment. The applicant also supplies a CV/resume and professional and educational certificates, but no minimum qualification is stated.
