Everything here is written in plain English for people in the UK and everywhere else who want an employer in the Netherlands, Ireland or Denmark to sponsor them. No legal language, no invented numbers, no promises anyone cannot keep.
For Graduate visa holders, care workers whose sponsor lost its licence, and anyone whose UK route is closing: how an employer in the Netherlands, Ireland or Denmark sponsors you without you leaving the UK first.
Netherlands: the highly skilled migrant permit, and the 2026 salary figuresHow the Dutch kennismigrant route works: who the recognised sponsors are, the exact IND salary criteria for 2026, the reduced rate for recent graduates, the 30% ruling, and how long it takes.
Ireland: General and Critical Skills Employment Permits, with the 2026 minimumsHow Irish employment permits work: the two main permit types, the exact 2026 salary minimums, the critical skills list, the labour market needs test, and what the government's list of permit-issuing companies tells you.
Denmark: the Pay Limit scheme, the Fast-track certified companies, and the 2026 figureHow Denmark sponsors non-EU workers: the DKK 552,000 pay limit for 2026, the supplementary scheme, the Positive Lists, and why the Fast-track certified list matters.
The European work permit scams, and how to check any offer in five minutesFake job offers, agents charging for permits, companies that do not exist: the scams aimed at people who want to work in the Netherlands, Ireland or Denmark, and the free checks that expose them.
The EU Blue Card, explained honestly: where it helps, and where it does not existWhat the EU Blue Card is, the 2026 Dutch figure, why Ireland and Denmark do not issue it, and when it is better than a national permit.
Six checks on every job, against the list and the rules of its own country. If a job fails one check, we remove it. Today 47,200 ads failed and 355 are live.
Every morning we download the IND public register of recognised sponsors, the DETE list of companies issued employment permits and the SIRI list of Fast-track certified companies, and check every company against the list for its own country. If a company drops off, its jobs leave this site the same day.
The three lists prove three different things, and we say which. In the Netherlands, the company is recognised by the IND and can apply for your highly skilled migrant permit. In Ireland, the company was actually issued an employment permit in the last two years. In Denmark, the company is certified for the Fast-track scheme. We never read a Dutch university's research listing as a job sponsor.
Netherlands: €5,942 a month gross for a highly skilled migrant aged 30 or over. Ireland: €36,605 a year for a General Employment Permit, €32,691 for care roles, €40,904 for Critical Skills. Denmark: DKK 552,000 a year. We convert hourly and monthly pay the right way, in the country's own currency.
Many ads say EU citizens only, or must hold a valid work permit, or no visa support. That line is often at the bottom of the ad. We read the whole ad, in English, Dutch and Danish, and remove those jobs.
An agency ad hides the real employer, so we cannot check the real sponsor. We remove agency ads, unless the ad clearly offers sponsorship.
The same job is often posted on many sites. Sometimes the refusal is only in one copy. So we read all the ads from each company. If a company says no and never says yes, we remove all its jobs.
You apply directly to the company. The company applies for your permit. We are not an agency, and this site is free.
Yes. This is the point of the site. In the Netherlands, Ireland and Denmark the employer applies for your permit while you are still abroad, including from the UK. You interview online, the employer files the application, and you travel when it is granted. You do not need to be in the country first.
A company needs two things: the right to sponsor you, and a real open job. In the Netherlands the IND publishes which companies are recognised sponsors. In Ireland the government publishes which companies were actually issued permits. In Denmark SIRI publishes which companies are certified for the Fast-track scheme. We download all three lists every morning, match every job ad against the list for its country, and remove ads that say no sponsorship. So you only apply to companies that can really sponsor you.
There is no easy one, but they differ. The Netherlands has the clearest system: a recognised sponsor can apply for your highly skilled migrant permit in about two weeks, but the salary bar is high. Ireland has the lowest salary bar for most jobs and issues tens of thousands of permits a year, including for care and hospitality. Denmark pays the most but the pay limit is the highest. Our guides compare them honestly.
It depends on the country and sometimes your age or job. Netherlands: €5,942 gross a month for a highly skilled migrant aged 30 or over, €4,357 if under 30. Ireland: €36,605 a year for a General Employment Permit, €32,691 for healthcare assistants and home carers, €40,904 for Critical Skills jobs. Denmark: DKK 552,000 a year under the Pay Limit scheme. Every job on this site is already checked against the figure for its own country, so you do not need to calculate anything.
For most of the jobs we show, no. Tech, engineering and many healthcare employers in Amsterdam, Dublin and Copenhagen work in English. Ireland is English speaking. Some care and hospitality jobs in the Netherlands and Denmark do need the local language, and the ad usually says so. We show the ad, you read it.
It is free, all of it: the jobs, the company names, the links, the email alerts. Some of the job links carry an affiliate code, so when you click through to a job board we may earn a small fee from that board. You never pay anything, and the employer never pays us. That is the whole business.
No. We are not an agency. We show you real jobs and where to apply. You apply yourself. The employer applies for your permit. Nobody takes money from your salary.
No. Be careful with anyone who promises that. We promise this: the company is on the official list of its country, the job was live when we sent it, and the pay is high enough for the permit. The rest is between you and the company.
Almost never. In the Netherlands, Ireland and Denmark the employer applies for the permit and pays the government fee. Nobody can lawfully sell you a permit or a sponsorship. A fee for a job offer is the oldest scam in this market. Do not pay it.
No. We are a job alert service. For advice about your own case, talk to a registered immigration lawyer or adviser in that country.
Every number on this site comes from our database when the page loads. Nothing is typed in by hand. The three lists come from the IND, DETE and SIRI websites. Anyone can check them.
Yes. All three countries let an employer sponsor a worker who is still abroad, wherever abroad is. Roughly six in ten of our readers are in the UK and the rest are everywhere else. The jobs are the same jobs.
