Recognition + work authorisation

Your qualification.
A clear path forward.

Tell us your profession, where you qualified and where you want to work. You get one ordered answer: whether your profession is regulated there, which authority decides, and the permit that actually lets you take the job.

One path, not twenty tabs

Every requirement in the order you need it.

Sources you can verify

Official links with a visible review date.

Two branches, one answer

Recognition and the right to work, together.

The question has two halves

Most people only get told about one of them.

A licence with no visa gets you nowhere. A visa for a job you are not licensed to hold gets you nowhere either. QualiPath resolves both from the same three answers.

◎Only if regulated

Recognition

Some professions may only be practised by people the destination has formally recognised. Where that applies, we name the authority and the procedure.

The competent authority, by profession and destination
Documents, translations, fees and realistic timelines
Every possible outcome, including the partial ones
“Not regulated” only when a source says so

↗Always

Work authorisation

Even a profession nobody regulates still needs a legal right to work. We compare the permits your situation opens, side by side.

Free movement where it genuinely applies
Salary floors shown with their year and their conditions
Points-based routes explained, never scored by us
Academic comparability where a permit demands it

The process

From uncertainty to
your next clear step.

The case where the recognition branch may have nothing to say, which puts the weight of the answer on work authorisation and on the degree comparability some permits demand.
