Why Move to Ireland? The Benefits of a Work Permit

Moving to Ireland via a legal work permit comes with life-changing advantages:

1. Full Sponsorship (Free Pathway): Sponsorship essentially means your move is free. If you secure a job offer, a licensed employer can pay the total expenses of your relocation.

2. Family Reunification: You don’t have to leave your loved ones behind. According to Citizens Information Ireland, family members can often join you immediately or after a short period.

3. High Demand for Workers: Employers are actively looking for international talent to fill gaps in the local labor market.

4. Pathway to Permanent Residency (PR): * Critical Skills Pathway: Get your “Stamp 4” permanent residency in just 2 years.

   • General Work Permit: Secure your residency in 5 years.

5. Insurance Coverage: Most sponsored roles include health insurance coverage, reducing your personal expenses.

How to Qualify: Eligibility Requirements

To get your working permit, you must meet these core criteria:

• A Valid Job Offer: You must have an offer from a licensed sponsor. You can find the official list of employment permit types here.

• Salary Thresholds: As of 2024/2025, the minimum salary for a General Employment Permit is generally €34,000, while Critical Skills roles typically start at €38,000.
