Limits of the record
  • Searched for occupation, qualification, salary, shortage or labour-market criteria for the employee card; the page only requires being an employee with a work contract (protected R1/R2 text) and refers to another section for other formalities.

What work does the permission allow? Is the holder tied to an employer, occupation or sector? Can family accompany where clearly established?

The official source does not state whether family may accompany the holder.
