It all depends on what you bring to the table for the country. A couple of my expat friends are in the wind/ solar industry. All engineers.
You mean your immigrant friends?
And yes, the more prepared and richer your friends are, the better the options... But still, it is not like all countries in the world are waiting with open arms.
The life of most immigrants is at least a bit uphill
Unfortunately, that is the case. Unless you have a skill that the country needs, that country is reluctant to bring you in.
But I will say that the requirements for a gold card is pretty open. It's not just engineers and IT. Artists and performers. Teachers and firefighters are all on the list.
My kid's English teacher(from UK) and French(France) teachers got Gold cards with only a few years teaching i their countries.
Gold cards?
Basically the Taiwan version of the American green card.
ah, good to know… thanks for the info
