How long is the permission normally granted for, how is it renewed, and what longer-term residence direction exists if officially stated?
IGM publishes a route-specific list of documents to extend posted worker provisional residence. For non-EU applicants, the documents must be submitted at least 30 days before the authorised stay ends; the IGM page specifies at least 15 days for EU citizens. Missing the deadline may incur administrative penalties. IGM expressly excludes posted workers from the general five-year permanent-residence application class shown on its permanent-residence page. The posted-worker extension list includes a valid passport and current residence permit, the underlying service/work contract and housing proof.

Limits of the record- The captured IGM category page does not state this temporary permit’s exact grant/renewal duration or route-specific loss rule. The permanent-residence page is general guidance; individual qualification and any later legislative amendment remain to be checked.
