Popular destinations within this region

Smith Stone Walters offers a comprehensive European immigration service covering all European Union (EU) countries. Among the most popular destination countries within this region are Germany, France and Spain. 

Germany

France

All EU citizens can work in France without requiring a visa due to freedom of movement shared rights between member states. Those that do require a visa to work in France have several options available depending on the type of employment they are seeking to undertake.

Spain

Non-EU/EEA nationals will need permission from the Spanish government to live and work in Spain. This means you need to apply for a work visa. There are different types of visas that you can apply for depending on your circumstances.

EU-wide visas

There are several EU-wide immigration schemes in place which allow third country nationals to easily travel within Europe for visits, business trips or work. Three commonly used categories are the Schengen visa, the EU Blue Card and the Intra-Corporate Transfer visa.
