We invite you to familiarize yourself with the data on residence permits issued to third-country nationals and their right to employment.
The residence permits section contains data on residence permit applications, positive decisions, and residence permits issued to third-country nationals from January 1, 2012, to December 31, 2025. The data can be filtered by type of residence permit, nationality, age group, and gender. In addition, from January 1, 2017, the reasons for issuing residence permits are included. The reasons are shown at the bottom of the page, where it is possible to select each reason separately, which in turn shows more detailed reasons for the permits received: work, studies, family reunification, investment, and others.
The section on the right to employment provides data on temporary residence permits and long-term visas with the right to employment issued to third-country nationals from January 1, 2012, to December 31, 2025. The data can be filtered by nationality, age group, gender, education, employment sector, and salary group.
