Latvia offers a work visa for foreign nationals who have secured a job in the country. The most common work visa is the National Visa (Type D), which allows foreign workers to stay and work in Latvia for more than 90 days. To apply, applicants need a job offer from a Latvian employer who must first obtain a work permit on their behalf. The application process requires submitting documents such as proof of employment, a valid passport, educational qualifications, and possibly a medical certificate. The work visa is typically valid for up to 1 year and can be extended, with the option of applying for a residence permit if staying longer. Additionally, highly skilled workers may be eligible for the EU Blue Card program, which provides benefits for qualified professionals.
