MOST REQUESTED SERVICES
Foreign Worker Hiring Advisory Services
We provide specialized consulting on hiring foreign workers to clarify all questions regarding the implementation of Chile's updated legal framework under Migration Law No. 21,325.
During this consultation, employers will gain a clear understanding of the key requirements for drafting employment documents and the legal obligations applicable to both employers and workers.
Failing to comply with these guidelines exposes both parties to penalties. For companies, fines can reach up to 200 UTM (Monthly Tax Units).
Therefore, we always recommend consulting with a legal specialist prior to hiring foreign personnel.
Processing for Paid Employment Residency Visas
According to the National Migration Service (Servicio Nacional de Migraciones), this visa allows foreign nationals to reside in Chile for a limited period to engage in lawful employment activities.
This applies to employment relationships based on subordination or dependency with an employer headquartered or operating a branch in Chile. The visa is granted for up to two years and can be renewed for successive two-year periods.
If your company seeks to hire personnel residing abroad, we can manage the entire visa application and processing workflow.
Work Authorizations
Do you need to hire foreign personnel currently holding a Temporary Visitor Status (Permanencia Transitoria) in Chile?
Although temporary visitors generally cannot engage in paid activities in Chile, a legal solution is available for your company. By way of exception, we can apply for a special work authorization allowing your foreign staff to perform specific and temporary duties. This includes roles such as advisors, technical experts, lecturers, public entertainers, or athletes, allowing them to receive compensation either in Chile or abroad. Ready to expand your team with international professionals? Contact us today, and we will efficiently manage all necessary authorizations to ensure your business remains fully compliant.
Seasonal Worker Residency Visas
The Temporary Residency Visa for Seasonal Workers is the ideal solution if your business requires international staff for specific seasonal projects. Designed to meet the demands of industries requiring short-term labor, this visa allows foreign personnel to enter Chile to undertake work for defined periods, whether for a single season or recurring multi-year periods. This visa category is particularly widely used in the agricultural sector due to the seasonal nature of its operations. However, any business requiring short-term labor can benefit from this temporary residency option. Optimize your workforce during peak demand seasons without legal complications. We handle the entire visa process so your international workers are authorized and ready to contribute quickly and efficiently. Interested in learning more?
