  • 1) Which third-country nationals are eligible to be granted a National Card?
    A National Card may be granted to a third-country national as defined in a Government Decree whose purpose of residence is to perform work for or under the direction and/or supervision of others, for remuneration, under employment relationship, including employment through temporary work agency, or who performs actual work as the owner or chief executive of a business organisation, cooperative or other legal entity established for the purpose of gainful activity in addition to the activities within this position.

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

For the employed route, the applicant needs an employment relationship: a preliminary agreement on establishment of an employment relationship or a document on legal relationship of employment may serve as proof of the purpose of residence. For the owner/chief executive route, the applicant performs actual work as the owner or chief executive of a business organisation, cooperative or other legal entity established for the purpose of gainful activity; no separate employer involvement is described.

Limits of the record
  • Regime-level: the factsheet states one validity for the National Card as a whole and does not differentiate by nationality or by profile (f1044352c9dc43fb.derived.txt[22773:22964]).
  • No longer-term residence direction is stated: section 10 'Further information' contains only the appeal rules (f1044352c9dc43fb.derived.txt[23219:23895]).
  • The page never names Serbia or Ukraine: eligibility is 'a third-country national as defined in a Government Decree' (f1044352c9dc43fb.derived.txt[10409:10937]).
  • Source defect: the extension conditions on this National Card page say 'a valid residence permit for guest workers' (f1044352c9dc43fb.derived.txt[14884:14986]), text carried over from the guest-worker factsheet; it was not used as a value.
  • chars 22823-22964
