Questions about working in Europe
Which European countries can I work in through you?
Finland, Malta, Cyprus, Croatia, Greece, Estonia, Luxembourg and Italy are open now. Germany and Poland are opening soon.
Do I need to speak English or another European language?
Basic English is preferred for most roles and needed for Malta hospitality jobs. Local language skills are an advantage but are not required for the listed positions.
What is the age limit?
There is no single age limit; employers set their own requirements. Most roles need good physical condition for shift or outdoor work.
Is the visa guaranteed?
No. A job offer or work permit does not guarantee a visa. The embassy or government authority makes the final decision.
What happens if my visa is refused?
Contact us straight away. Depending on the reason, options include a replacement candidate, a transfer to another programme, or a refund request, which is reviewed case by case under the programme terms.
Can I choose my employer or city?
No. The listed cities are priority recruitment locations. Your employer and workplace are confirmed in your official employment documents.
Is accommodation provided?
It depends on the employer. Where accommodation is provided, its cost may be deducted from your salary. Your contract will state this.
Can I bring my family?
Not at the start. Family reunification rules differ by country and usually need a minimum income, suitable housing and a period of legal residence.
Can I apply while working in the Middle East?
Yes. Register online, keep your current residence visa valid, and we will tell you which embassy handles your visa appointment.
Which currency are the fees in?
Partner payments are quoted in US dollars. The EUROVISADESK service charge is LKR 590,000.
Are you a recruitment agency?
No. EUROVISADESK is a visa consultancy. We advise you and prepare your work permit and visa application. Job offers come from employers through our UK-registered partner's programme.
When do I pay you?
Only after your visa is issued. The first two payments, for documentation, government fees and the work permit, go directly to our UK partner through its online payment system. Our service charge comes last, with a discount applied.
Can I get a refund if my visa is refused?
Documentation and government fees are non-refundable. The work permit payment is refunded, or moved to another country's application. If the refusal is caused by the applicant, for example false or missing documents, nothing is refunded.
Do you also handle visit and business visas?
Yes. We prepare Schengen visit visas and business visa applications too. Contact us for the fee for your destination.
