Read a Linkedin[1] post from someone in the cabinet in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Bosnia and Herzegovina proposing a plan where local companies could basically bypass work permits and fast-track employees to citizenship. There's other items there, but this caught my attention<p>Is this actually possible?<p>[*1] Post: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7246114526868213760/
It's possible if the proposal is accepted into legislation. Any sovereign nation can decide its own immigration rules. Other countries have similar programmes to attract top talent.<p>Most likely this kind of work permit will be limited to skilled trades. There will be some requirements, such as having a degree (or equivalent qualification) in the relevant field and/or relevant work experience. It's not going to be for low-skilled jobs where anyone could qualify, unless there's a worker shortage that needs to be filled.
