EU Blue Card

The EU Blue Card is for those who are professionals and educated and have expertise in their own education and professional experience in that area. If you think that you are included in those, then don’t wait and apply for an EU blue card in Poland without wasting your time.

If you don’t know the requirements for an EU Blue Card, then relax, because we will help you find out the basic requirements. Let’s start it.

 

EU Blue Card Basic Requirements

Here are the three simple and basic requirements for the EU Blue Card application, e.g.,

1. You have a professional degree in your relevant field, e.g., a master’s in IT. JUST an example.
2. You have professional experience in the relevant background.
3. You got a job offer as a professional skilled worker that helps you qualify and apply for an EU Blue Card in Poland.

 

Author’s keynote for you: apart from that, you have to follow the normal application process, just like work permit applicants do. The only things that make your case different are that you are considered to be a skilled worker and your salary is almost double the average salary in Poland.

 

Benefits & Rights for EU Blue cardholders

1. You pay a higher salary compared to a standard work permit holder, maybe around 2500 euros.
2. You can apply after 5 years of continuous legal stay.
3. The most important benefit and right for an EU cardholder is that you can move to another EU country for work after 18 months under a simplified procedure.
4. Longer protected period to find a new job (3 months or more) in case of unemployment.
5. Immediate family reunification rights for spouse and minor children.
6. If you are an EU blue cardholder, your spouse has immediate and unrestricted access to the Polish labor market without a separate work permit.

 

Author’s note for you: if you are marreid and you spouse in living in your country from where you come then you can apply for you spouse visa and you will get your spouse visa quicker then normal work permit holders because the immigartion office know that you are earning farily enough you bear your spouse expenses in poland.  this is plus points for eu blue card holder or those who are thinking to apply for eu blue card in poland.
