Registration of short-term employment

• Long-stay (D) visa application

Short-term employment in Estonia is permitted for up to 365 days within 455 consecutive days. Short-term employment must be registered by the employer at the Police and Border Guard Board before you start working and before you apply for a long-stay visa. The service includes:

• preliminary analysis of the prospect of short-term employment registration
• consultation in preparing the package of documents
• consultation in completing the forms
• assistance in preparing answers to additional questions of the Police and Border Guard Board, if they arise

The decision on registering short-term employment, as a rule, is taken within 15 business days from the application submission.
