Residence Permits: Your Guide to Living Legally in a New Country

Moving to a new country can be an exciting opportunity, but before settling in, you’ll need the right documentation. A residence permit allows you to live legally in a country for an extended period, whether for work, study, family reunification, or other purposes.

At Fast Catalogue Depot, we help individuals navigate the application process, ensuring a smooth transition to their new home. Whether you’re relocating for a job, education, or personal reasons, we provide the guidance you need.

What Is a Residence Permit?

A residence permit is an official authorization issued by a country’s government that allows a foreign national to stay for a specific period. Unlike a tourist visa, which permits short visits, a residence permit grants long-term legal stay, often with the ability to work, study, or start a business.

Many countries issue temporary residence permits first, which may later lead to permanent residency and, in some cases, citizenship.

 

Who Needs a Residence Permit?

You need a residence permit if:
✅ You plan to stay in a country for more than 90 days.
✅ You are moving for work, education, family reunification, or business.
✅ You want to apply for permanent residency or citizenship in the future.
