Work permit policy Show all updates Show all updates Body ContentThis policy is updated on a regular basis and employers should familiarise themselves with the latest version. Updated April 2025. All applications will be assessed against the version of the policy that is in place at the time the application is submitted. Policy changes will affect existing work permit holders. IntroductionAll persons who are not British or Irish require immigration permission to visit, work, study or settle in Jersey. This policy sets out the main routes available to employers to employ individuals from overseas. Work permits are a requirement under the Immigration (Work Permits) (Jersey) Rules 1995 and as such employers are required to apply for a work permit for those individuals who require immigration permission to enter or remain in Jersey for work. The maintenance of a strict work permit policy will maintain and strengthen Jersey's position within the Common Travel Area (CTA), allowing the continued free movement of persons within the CTA, whilst retaining a robust external border. The Minister for Justice and Home Affairs expects equal pay for equal work and employees should expect to receive similar pay rates to that received by other employees doing the same work with similar levels of skill and experience. The work permit policy attempts to put measures in place to limit the risks of exploitation by ensuring that:employees receive equal pay for equal workemployers comply with Employment (Jersey) Law 2003 employers adopt robust and ethical recruitment practices to ensure only genuine employees are recruited with the relevant skills, qualifications and experience to undertake the role they are being employed foremployers give due consideration to the welfare of their employees inside and outside of work and that they are accommodated to a standard that supports their health and wellbeingIn addition, the work permit policy is designed to support the Island's population strategy.The employer is also required to meet the requirements of the Control of Housing and Work (Jersey) Law 2012 and hold the requisite licensing permission. All routes listed within this policy are subject to business licencing issuing a permission under CHWL. In granting any work permit, the Minister for Justice and Home Affairs does so on the expectation that all employers give due consideration to the welfare of their employees both in and outside the workplace. In particular, the Minister would expect all employees relocating to Jersey to live in accommodation of a standard which supports their health and wellbeing and, most importantly, that of their dependent children. The Minister expects employers holding work permits to take reasonable steps to ensure that their employees and their employees' dependents are suitably accommodated. Work permits are issued to a named employer, for a named employee to work in a specified role, as detailed on the work permit. Permits cannot be transferred to another employer or employee. Where an employee is permitted to switch to another employer a new work permit and further leave to remain application must be submitted. Where an employee has their employment terminated prematurely then their work permit and associated immigration permissions will cease to be valid. Applying for a work permitThe work permit policy is designed primarily for employers to understand the criteria that must be met in order for a work permit to be issued. The policy does provide some information to employees on the immigration restrictions placed on work permit holders, and there are links to information about living and working in Jersey which sits outside the remit of Immigration see appendix 7.Skilled employees are invited to come and work in Jersey on either long term or temporary work permit route subject to employers demonstrating that the work permit application criteria are met for the relevant route. Employees do not require a permit to work in Jersey if they are:a British or Irish citizen or a British subject with the right of abodean EU or EEA passport holder who has been granted settled or pre-settled statusa non-EU or non-EEA passport holder who has been granted settled or pre-settled statue by virtue of a relationship to an EU or EEA passport holdera Commonwealth citizen admitted on the grounds of UK ancestrya Commonwealth citizen with a certificate of entitlement to the right of abodea participant in the Youth Mobility Schemea minister of religiona business visitora non-EU or EEA passport holder who has no restrictions attached to your stay Before making an application for any type of work permit, the employer should read and familiarise themselves with this policy to ensure that the application criteria can be met.Employers should only be applying for permits for the duration that they require the employee for. For example, if a construction company only has 3 months' work available then they should only apply for a 3 month permit. By applying for a work permit the employer agrees JCIS Officers will be granted access to work premises so checks can be conducted to ensure compliance with the work permit policy. When to applyApplications for new work permits will not be accepted more than 3 months before the start date (including those changing employer).Extensions to long term work permits will not be accepted more than 6 months before the expiry of the current permit.Extensions to temporary work permits will not be accepted more than 3 months before the expiry of the current permit. What you need to applyAs a guide, to complete and submit the application the employer will need:copies of personal details page of the applicant passport and if applicable the page showing their current UK immigration permissionsknowledge of English language (if applying for more than 12 months)copy of your business licensecertificate of qualificationssigned copy of a contract of employment and job descriptionAny additional sector relevant information where requireda debit or credit card (to make the payment)This information can be uploaded into the application before you can submit it. If we require additional documentary evidence in support of the application, one of our Officer will contact you using the information you have provided in the application.The work permit application form must be completed by someone authorised to do so on behalf of the employer and can make payment for the work permit. An employee cannot apply for their own work permit. Apply for a work permit Employee visas for working in JerseyIf your prospective employee is living abroad and is granted a Jersey work permit the employee is likely to need a visa before travelling to Jersey. The Jersey visa requirements are aligned to the UK visa requirements. Find out if you need a UK visa on GOV.UK.Your employee may be refused entry to Jersey if they don't have the necessary visa. If you are granted a work permit, you will be sent instructions to help your prospective employee complete the visa application form for Jersey Work Permit Holders on GOV.UK The visa application is a separate process to applying for a work permit and the work permit holder will need to meet the criteria for the issue of the visa. If the applicant is unable to do this or has an adverse immigration history, then the visa maybe refused. Find out how much a visa will cost your prospective employee on GOV.UK. The cost will be shown in the currency of your employee's current location.The visa application is administered by the UK Home Office. Find out the visa processing times on GOV.UK. If your prospective employee is in authorised employment in the UK, Guernsey or Isle of Man they will not need to travel abroad to obtain a separate visa if they are granted a work permit to work in Jersey. In these circumstances the prospective employee will need to Make an application for Further Leave to Remain (FLR) directly to the Jersey Customs and Immigration Service. Employer responsibilitiesThe below are employer responsibilties: the employer must comply with the Employment (Jersey) Law 2003 and ensure that the principles of the legislation are applied to all work permit holders regardless of the duration of their employment the employer must ensure that any employee is recruited fairly, and that robust and tested recruitment practices are followed to ensure that only suitably skilled and experience employees are recruited to a vacancy the employer must ensure that they conduct vetting on their employees which should include obtaining references from previous employers to verify experience and getting qualifications authenticated by the issued body (particularly for roles in Health, Therapy, Social Services and Education) prior to any submission of a work permit application the employer must present the employee with a contract and a signed copy must be included with the application a signed offer letter is insufficient the employer must notify JCIS of any amendments to the contract the employer is responsible for covering any work permit and recruitment agency costs – an employer cannot deduct work permit and recruitment agency costs from the employee's wages the employer may deduct from the employees' wages any loans that have been advanced to the employee to cover visa, flight and reasonable/proportionate relocation costs. If the employee is loaned money by the employer, they cannot be required to repay a sum greater than the sum loaned and must be provided in writing with full details of the repayment terms of any loan contracts must stipulate what deductions will be made from an employee's wages, highlighting amounts and terms of the deductions. Deductions must be reasonable and proportionate and comply with Employment (Jersey) Law 2003 where an employee is paid the minimum wage the maximum values that may be deducted each week from an employee's wages are £146.02 for accommodation or £194.60 for accommodation and food (correct as of 2025) Employment (Minimum Wage) (Jersey) Order 2007 where an employer is providing accommodation as part of an employment package, whether this is accommodation owned by the employer or the employer has signed a lease, the maximum values that can be deducted for an employee on minimum wage apply as per the Employment (Minimum Wage) (Jersey) Order 2007 where an employee is paid more than the minimum wage then the deductions for accommodation or accommodation and food, whether this is accommodation owned by the employer or the employer has signed a lease, should be affordable and proportionate to the employees wage (as a guide, in 2024 those on minimum wage had approximately 27% of the wages deducted for accommodation or approximately 36% of their wages deducted for accommodation and food) where an employee is leasing accommodation on the open market, and the accommodation is not provided as part of the employment package, then the employer should take reasonable steps to ensure that employees are suitably accommodated "food" is defined as 3 adequate meals on each day on which the employee is employed. Employers may not offset a proportionate amount of pay for less than 3 meals per day and a charge for food may not be offset unless accommodation is also provided "accommodation" must be available to the employee from midnight to midnight on each day of employment the employer has a responsibility to manage the expectation of the employee and provide them information about living and working in Jersey as well as ensuring that they understand the immigration route they have applied for them to be on the employer must pay the employee for their weekly contracted hours regardless of whether there is work for them. The employer cannot outsource the employees to other employers. Doing so will jeopardise their ability to recruit employees on work permits the employer must maintain adequate records on their employees, particularly where performance is brought into question. Where an employee's employment is terminated due to poor performance, JCIS may request evidence of this the employer must notify JCIS when the employment of a work permit holder is terminated. This must be before the employees last working day as it may be necessary to cancel their immigration permissions employers who submit fraudulent or counterfeit documents in support of any work permit application will have the application refused, they will be unable to apply for further work permits and will find themselves liable to prosecution employers who have already been granted a work permit and it later transpires have submitted fraudulent or counterfeit documents in support of any work permit application will have all work permit permissions cancelled, they will be unable to apply for further work permits and will find themselves liable to prosecution Employee responsibilitiesThe below are employee responsibilties:the employee should carefully read any employment contract and ensure that they question anything that they don’t understand with the employer before signing.the employee should do their research before accepting any role in Jersey so that they understand travel, accommodation and living costs (more information is provided later in this document and available on the Moving to Jersey webpage along with a useful Checklist).the employee must abide by the conditions of the work permit and their visa.the employee must have sufficient funds to cover flights back to their home countries, for themselves and any dependants, at the end of their work permit period or should their immigration permissions be cancelled.the employee must not indebt themselves to unethical recruiters. JCIS are aware that unethical recruitment practices are prevalent in some countries across the world. These practices include the payment of large sums of money, either upfront or once in post, to the recruiters to secure employment. A reputable recruiter will normally be paid by their client and not the job seeker.the employee can only work for the employer specified on the work permit and carry out the duties for which the work permit has been issued for and covered by their contract of employment.there permitted, and with the consent of the primary employer, the employee can take on additional part-time work with another employer (see appendix 4).the employee must understand that they may not be able to have their dependants join them in Jersey.employees who submit fraudulent or counterfeit documents in support of their employment in Jersey will have any work permit and / or visa application refused.employees who have already been granted a work permit and it later transpires have submitted fraudulent or counterfeit documents in support of their employment in Jersey will have any work permit and / or visa application cancelled and will find themselves liable to prosecution.employees who provide fraudulent or counterfeit documents in support of immigration applications for themselves or their dependants will have any work permit and / or visa application cancelled and will find themselves liable to prosecution.an employee must notify JCIS when the employment of a work permit holder is terminated. This must be before the employees last working day as it may be necessary to cancel their immigration permissions.where an employee sources their own accommodation on the open market then it must be affordable and suitable to accommodate themselves and any dependants. Temporary work permit overviewTemporary employment routes are an exception to the CTA standards which are justified to the United Kingdom by setting stringent rules on those who would not otherwise be allowed a visa to work elsewhere in the CTA. Temporary work permits will only be considered for employment in any of the temporary categories. Outsourced functions carried out by third parties in support of the agriculture, aquaculture, construction, fishing, horticulture and hospitality sectors will not be eligible for work permit employment. There are 4 routes available for temporary work permit employment:short term temporary route for the agriculture, aquaculture, construction, fishing, horticulture and hospitality sectors. Permits are issued for a maximum period of 9 monthsannual temporary route for construction, sea going fishing sector and hospitality. Permits are issued for periods of 12 months and can be renewed annuallystudent temporary route for foreign students studying in France where employment is connected to their course of study. Permits are issued for a maximum period of 6 months’non-Resident temporary route for overseas employers sending employees to Jersey to fulfil specific contractual obligations where there is a requirement for the business to hold a non-resident undertaking granted by Business LicencingTemporary work permits for employment outside of these sectors will only be considered after satisfying the Minister for Justice and Home Affairs that the labour cannot be found from within the CTA and the temporary worker criteria can be met see Appendix 5. A business case will be required and should be submitted in the first instance to The Head of Service, Jersey Customs and Immigration Service.Temporary employees may switch in country into long term (previously skilled) Work Permit Employment without leaving the island if they meet all of the necessary criteria as detailed later in this document.Temporary employees on a 9 or 12 month permit cannot switch employers within the first continuous 6 months of their employment unless they are switching to the long term employment route.In exceptional circumstances a temporary worker may be able to switch to other temporary employment in the same sector in the first 6 months and a case will need to be submitted to JCIS for consideration. Consideration will not be given to those who fail a probationary period.Those permitted to switch employer will require a new work permit and they must apply for further leave to remain to align their, and their dependants, immigration permissions with the new work permit. Failure to do so will place the employee in breach of their immigration permissions and will impact their ability to apply for indefinite leave to remain.Temporary employees in any category will not be able to bring their dependants to join them in Jersey.Those on temporary work permit employment are under no obligation to take on additional hours beyond their contracted hours and employers must make the employees aware of this.There is no English language requirement for temporary work permits and time spend on these routes doesn’t count to the qualifying period for settlement (indefinite leave to remain).

Applications will be accepted for roles in:agriculture, aquaculture, horticultureconstructionhospitality andsea going fishing sectorPermits can be applied for any period up to 9 months.At the end of the work permit period employees are required to leave the CTA for at least 3 months before they will be permitted to return to Jersey in this capacity. For those granted permission to work in this category they are unable to extend beyond 9 months, switch employment into another temporary route or bring dependants to the Island. The period of absence is to immediately follow the end of the permission.Transfer to a different employer within the same temporary route will be considered under exceptional circumstances on successful application of a further work permit. An application for further leave to remain in line with the new work permit will be required and the appropriate fee paid. Work permits and further leave to remain will not be granted beyond 9 months from the date the initial work permit was issued from.Time spend on this route doesn’t count to the qualifying period for settlement (indefinite leave to remain).

However, for construction, the duration of the work permit will be tied to the duration of the specific project the employee was taken on for.Transfer to a different employer will be considered under exceptional circumstances on successful application of a further work permit. An application for further leave to remain in line with the new work permit will be required and the appropriate fee paid. Transfer to another employer will not be considered for those who have failed a probationary period or within the first 6 months period of work permit employment with a new employer.Time spend on this route doesn’t count to the qualifying period for settlement (indefinite leave to remain).

Time spend on this route doesn’t count to the qualifying period for settlement (indefinite leave to remain).

This ensures a break in continuous residency and means that time spent in Jersey in temporary work permit employment doesn’t lead to settlement.Student work permits issued for less than, or equal to, 6 months must be followed by a 3 month absenceShort Term work permits issued for less than, or equal to, 9 months must be followed by a 3 month absenceAnnual work permits (first 12 months) issued for less than, or equal to, 12 months must be followed by a 4 month absenceAnnual work permits (second 12 months) extended for greater than 12 months and less than, or equal to, 24 months must be followed by an 8 month absenceAnnual work permits (third 12 months) extended for greater than 24 months and less than, or equal to, 36 months must be followed by a 12 month absenceAnnual work permits (fourth 12 months) extended for greater than 36 months and less than, or equal to, 48 months must be followed by a 16 month absence (temporary construction route only)Intra-Company Transfer work permits issued for less than, or equal to, 36 months must be followed by a 12 month absence before the employee can return in this capacity (see page 32 for more details on this route)Absence periods will not be pro-rated where employment end dates fall between these bands for example, an employee who completes 18 months on an annual work permit will require an absence period of 8 months.The mandatory absence periods do not apply when an employee switches from a temporary to a long term work permit.

Any student wishing to take employment in the Island after their studies will require a work permit. Non-resident business work permitNon-resident work permitNon-resident work permitThis route is available for overseas employers who are required to hold non-resident undertaking issued under Control of Housing and Work (Jersey) Law 2012 and bring their employees to the Island to fulfil a specific contractual obligation.More information about non-resident business licence requirements can be found on the apply for a non-resident business licence to work in Jersey page.Not all criteria and conditions detailed in other sections of this policy will apply to employers and employees coming to Jersey on this route. Employers and employees must comply with the employment legislation in their primary country of business.The following mandatory criteria must be met by the employer:the employer has a signed contract of work with the customer in Jerseyall employees must be aged 18 or over on the date of the applicationall employees must be adequately accommodated for the duration of their stay in Jerseythe employer must remain in compliance with their Non-Resident Undertaking issued under Control of Housing and Work (Jersey) Law 2012if a Non-Resident Undertaking is withdrawn, any work permit issued against that licence will cease to be validJCIS must be notified if an employee does not arrive or depart Jersey as plannedall employees being employed under a non-resident undertaking for roles in Health, Therapy, Social Services and Education must obtain overseas criminal record certificates from every country where the employee has been resident for more than 12 months in the last 10 years. In addition, they must obtain UK DBS checksemployers and employees may be required to registered with Social Security and Income Tax. Depending on the duration of employment in the Island they may be liable to pay social security and income tax in Jersey employers should contact customerservices@gov.je for more information. The onus is on the employer and employee to ensure that they are compliantby applying for a work permit the employer agrees that access will be granted to work premises to JCIS Officers by appointment to conduct checks to ensure compliance with the work permit policyDepending on the nationality of employees, and duration of the work permit, employees may be required to apply for a visa.Employers and employees must be aware of the following: An employee can work for the employer specified on the work permit only carry out the duties for the post which the permit has been obtained forAn employee can't accure time towards indefinite leave to remain switch to other temporary work permit employment switch employer extend work permit have any dependants join them in Jersey Long-term work permit route Long-term work permit (previously skilled work permit)Long-term work permit (previously skilled work permit)This route is available for those individuals employed in any industry for an initial period of up to 3 years following which a further work permit may be granted. Work Permits may be granted to Medical Doctors at the General Hospital for up to 5 years in the first instance. The period of employment is determined by the employer and may not extend to the full validity of the work permit.Occupations eligible for the long-term work permit employment route can be found in Appendix 1. These are derived from the Standard Occupation Classification Codes assessed by the UK Migration Advisory Committee to meet Level 3 or above of the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF). Salary thresholdsSalary thresholds are derived from UK Skilled Work Visa lists and amended for Jersey to reflect higher costs of living in the Island. Employers must demonstrate that an employee will be paid the minimum salary threshold or the going rate for the role whichever is higher. For example:Minimum Salary thresholds are based on an employee being given an hourly rate for working 40 hours over 52 weeks per year (for example, £15.00 x 40 x 52 = £31,200).Employees contracted for full time employment on less than 40 hours per week must be paid a higher hourly rate to achieve the minimum salary threshold (for example, £16.22 x 37 x 52 = £31,200)Employees contracted for full time employment on more than 40 hours per week must be paid the hourly rate which equates the minimum salary threshold (for example, £15.00 x 45 x 52 = £35,100)The following mandatory criteria must be met by the employer: robust and tested recruitment processes are followed to ensure employees have the appropriate experience or skills to fulfil the work they will undertake with appropriate vetting on individuals and their qualifications and experience to ensure they are genuine a genuine vacancy must exist meeting the skills and salary threshold. Roles must not be created to solely facilitate immigration of a specific employee to Jersey all employees must be aged 18 or over on the date of application the minimum salary thresholds (listed in Appendices 1 and 2) must be met or the 'the going rate' whichever is the higher based on a 40-hour week. Evidence of this must be provided in the form of a signed contract the job must be at or above the minimum skill level: RQF 3 or equivalent (A level or equivalent qualification) unless an exception applies (see Appendix 2: Long term work permit exceptions) the employee must meet the minimum English language requirement, B1 or higher (see Appendix 3) employees being employed in Health, Therapy, Social Services and Education must obtain overseas criminal record certificates from every country where the employee has been resident for more than 12 months in the last 10 years. In addition, they must obtain UK DBS checks employees being employed in Health, Therapy, Social Services and Education must have 2+ years employment experience relevant to the role they are being employed for and must hold relevant qualifications which have been vetted employer to ensure that employees are adequately accommodated meeting the minimum standards required which supports their health and wellbeing JCIS must be notified if an employee does not arrive or depart as planned or if employment is terminated early JCIS must be notified immediately if there is a change to the contract that was provided in support of the work permit application. Changes to a contract that breach the work permit policy and Employment (Jersey) Law 2003 will result in a review of the employers ability to apply for work permits by applying for a work permit the employer agrees that access will be granted to work premises to JCIS Officers by appointment to conduct checks to ensure compliance with the work permit policyEmployees are unable to switch employer within the first continuous 6 months of their employment with the employer. During this period should an employee fail their probationary period or have their employment terminated prematurely they will not be able to switch employer; will have their leave to enter / remain cancelled; and will be required to leave the CTA. After successfully completing their first 6 months those granted permissions to work in this category will be able to switch employer subject to a new work permit being granted. The same will apply in that they will be unable to switch employment for the first 6 months of their work permit period with the new employer. In exceptional circumstances an employee may be able to switch employment in the first 6 months and a case will need to be submitted to JCIS for consideration. Consideration will not be given to those who fail a probationary period. Those permitted to switch employer will require a new work permit and they must apply for further leave to remain to align their, and their dependants, immigration permissions with the new work permit. Failure to do so will place the employee in breach of their immigration permissions and will impact their ability to apply for indefinite leave to remain. Employees can take on unpaid voluntary work for a charity that is registered under the Charities (Jersey) Law 2014, or registered with either the Charity Commission for England and Wales; the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland; or the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator Employees may be able to bring dependants with them when a work permit is granted for a period longer than 12 months. Dependants' permissions are tied to the validity of the work permit holders' permissions, and they cannot apply in country for work permit employment in their own right (see section on Dependants of long-term work permit holders). Employees who are joined by their dependents within any probationary period of their employment must be aware that their immigration permission and that of their dependents is entirely based around successfully passing their probation. During this period should an employee fail their probationary period or have their employment terminated prematurely they and their dependants will have their leave to enter / remain cancelled and will be required to leave the CTA. Applications for dependants are assessed against the Jersey Immigration Rules paragraph 194 (spouse or civil partner), paragraph 197 (child), and paragraph 295J (unmarried partner). When assessing visa applications for dependants we need to be satisfied that the work permit holder has sufficient earning capacity to maintain and accommodate their dependants without recourse to public funds in accommodation that is not overcrowded, they own or occupy exclusively and is suitable for the health and wellbeing of the family. We will assess applications based on the work permit holder's salary and we will not consider additional income from overtime, part-time employment, the potential earning power of a dependant or financial assistance from a third party, as these are not guaranteed. In addition, we will consider the impact of any outstanding loans/repayments that the work permit holder has privately or otherwise as this will impact on their ability to maintain and accommodate their dependents. (see section on Dependants of long-term work permit holders). Dependants do not require work permits to take employment in Jersey but must comply with the Control of Housing and Work (Jersey) Law 2012. An employee can work for the employer specified on the work permit only carry out the duties for the post which the permit has been obtained for accrue time towards indefinite leave to remain bring any dependants with them if their work permit has been issued for longer than 12 months subject to being able to maintain and accommodate them without recourse to public funds take on unpaid voluntary work for a charity take on supplementary part time paid employment An employee can't switch employment to other long-term employment in the first 6 months of a work permit with an employer switch to work permit dependant permissions bring any dependants with them if their work permit has been issued for 12 months or less Dependants of long-term work permit holdersDependents for the purpose of the work permit policy are defined as the spouse, partner, and children of the work permit holder. Individuals employed on a temporary work permit in any sector cannot bring their dependants with them under any circumstances. Individuals employed on a long-term or intra-company transfer work permit issued for more than 12 months may be able to bring their dependants with them however their permissions to be in Jersey are directly linked to conditions imposed on the work permit holder. Applications for dependants will be assessed against the Jersey Immigration Rules paragraph 194 (spouse or civil partner), paragraph 197 (child), and paragraph 295J (unmarried partner). Adult work permit dependants do not require a work permit to take employment in Jersey and there are no immigration restrictions on the type of employment they can take. Work permit dependants cannot switch into work permit employment. Child work permit dependants will only be granted permissions if they are under the age of 18 years old at the time of their application. If only 1 parent is relocating to Jersey with a child, then they will need to evidence that they have sole responsibility for that child.Sole parental responsibility means that 1 parent has abdicated or abandoned parental responsibility, and the remaining parent is exercising sole control in setting and providing the day-to-day direction for the child's welfare. Where both parents are involved in a child's upbringing it will not be possible for 1 parent to demonstrate sole parental responsibility.The work permit holder must ensure that they can adequately accommodate and maintain their dependants without recourse to public funds (see definition of recourse to public funds on page 34). A work permit holder must consider the impact that moving a family to Jersey will have, including being aware of limited housing stock, high rental prices and costs of childcare.Visas for dependants may be refused where an employee is still within their probationary period; will be refused if it cannot be demonstrated that suitable accommodation is in place which supports the wellbeing and health of the family and does not contravene statutory overcrowding legislation; will be refused if sole responsibility of a child cannot be demonstrated; and will be refused if dependants cannot be maintained or accommodated without recourse to public funds.The same criteria are applied when applications for further leave to remain are submitted. If the work permit holder is unable to meet the requirements to maintain and accommodate their dependants, then their application maybe refused, and the dependants will be required to leave the Island. Also, if a work permit holder is unable to pay for their immigration permissions and those of their dependants the applications will be refused. Where a child dependant is born in Jersey, the work permit holder must apply for further leave to remain for that child, meet the application requirements and pay the requisite fee. Failure to do so may impact the applicants ability to apply for indefinite leave to remain for themselves and their dependants.Income support in Jersey is a benefit that is designed to provide an adequate level of support to cover food, clothing, doctors' costs and other daily living expenses but does not include rent or childcare for more information on income support see how your Income Support benefit is made up.When calculating whether an applicant, or sponsor, is able to maintain and accommodate themselves and any dependants, available net income (once rent, childcare and loan repayments has been removed) is compared against the income support figure that a similar household would be eligible for. Available net income must be greater than the income support figure. Income derived from overtime and part-time employment will not be considered as these are not guaranteed and may not be possible to continue with once the dependants are in Jersey. Financial assistance from third parties will only be considered in exceptional circumstances. The below table is the net income, once rent, childcare costs and loans are removed that must be shown to demonstrate an applicant is able to maintain themselves and their dependants. This is based on 2025 income support figures available on how your Income Support benefit is made up. These will be updated every year.

Dependants can: take employment without a work permit subject to meeting the requirements of Control of Housing and Work legislation enter education subject to meeting the requirements set out by the Children, Young People, Education and Skills departmentDependants can't: join a work permit holder who holds a temporary work permit join a work permit holder who holds a long-term work permit issued for 12 months or less join a work permit holder who is unable to demonstrate that they can maintain and accommodate without recourse to public funds join a work permit holder who is a single parent who is unable to evidence sole responsibility switch to work permit employment remain in Jersey beyond the permissions of the work permit holder General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS)Jersey is covered by the UK’s World Trade Organisation (“WTO”) membership from the end of the Brexit transition period on 31 December 2020. The General Agreement on Trade in Services (“GATS”) is a treaty of the WTO. Since WTO membership applies to Jersey, the following provisions in relation to Contractual Service Suppliers and Independent professionals, including Intra-Company Transfers are in force. Intra-company transferApplications may be considered for employees from the same organisation outside of Jersey who intend to be temporarily transferred (secondment) provided the following requirements are met:the intra-company transferee must have been working for the same company outside of Jersey for at least 12 months directly prior to the transferthe company in Jersey and the company outside of Jersey must be linked by common ownership and controlthe employment must require company-specific knowledge to undertake project work or for career development purposesall prospective employees must be aged 18 or over on the date of application. If the applicant is too young, the application will be refusedthe intra-company transferee cannot move into other work permit employment in Jerseythe intra-company transferee will resume employment for the same company outside of Jersey at the end of the transfer periodthe intra-company transferee cannot return to Jersey in this capacity unless there has been an absence of at least 12 monthsthe maximum period for which a work permit can be applied for based on an intra-company transfer is 3 years, including any extensionemployer to ensure that employees are adequately accommodated meeting the minimum standards required which supports their health and wellbeingJCIS must be notified if an employee does not arrive or depart as planned or if employment is terminated earlyby applying for a work permit the employer agrees that access will be granted to work premises to JCIS Officers by appointment to conduct checks to ensure compliance with the work permit policy The intra-company transferee is exempt from the English language requirement. An employee can: work for the employer specified on the work permit only carry out the duties for the post which the permit has been obtained for bring dependants with them if their work permit has been issued for longer than 12 months subject to being able to maintain and accommodate them without recourse to public fundsAn employee can't: accrue time towards indefinite leave to remain switch to other work permit employment switch employer extend the work permit beyond 3 years Contractual service suppliersApplications may be considered for persons provided the following requirements are met:the employer must be based outside the European Union in a country or territory which is a signatory to the trade agreement under which they are supplying services and the employee must be a national of that countrythe person must have been an employee of the company for at least 12 monthsthe person must have a degree level or equivalent level qualification, unless they are: supplying fashion model services, chef de cuisine services or entertainment services other than audio visual services under the EU: CARIFORUM economic partnership agreement; or supplying advertising and translation serviceswhere required by relevant Jersey legislation, regulations or sectoral requirements, the person must hold any specific professional qualifications or registrations to provide the services in Jerseythe person must have 3 years professional experience in the sector in which they are supplying services unless they are supplying chef de cuisine services under the E: CARIFORUM economic partnership agreement, in which case, the person must have at least 6 years’ relevant experience at the level of chef de cuisine and have an advanced technical qualification; andthe maximum period for which a work permit can be applied for based on a contractual service supplier is 2 years unless providing a service under the EU: CARIFORUM economic partnership agreement, the EU: Andean multiparty trade agreement and the EU European Union: Chile free trade agreement, when it is a maximum period of 6 months in any 12 month period Independent professionalsApplications may be considered for persons provided the following requirements are met:the business must be established on the territory of the country which is signatory to the trade agreement under which they are supplying services, and they must be a national of that countrythey must have a university degree or technical qualification which demonstrates knowledge of a similar levelwhere required by relevant legislation, regulations, or sectoral requirements, they must have specific professional qualifications to provide some services in Jerseythey must have 6 years professional experience in the sector in which they are supplying servicesthe maximum period for which a work permit can be applied for on the basis of an independent professional is 2 years No recourse to public fundsThe legal basis for “no recourse to public funds" is paragraph 3(1) of the Immigration Act 1971, as that Act was extended to Jersey: Immigration (Jersey) Order 2021 on Jersey Law. When limited leave to enter or remain is granted to an individual, certain conditions may be imposed on that leave. Among them paragraph 3(1)(c)(ii) enables the following condition to be imposed: “a condition requiring him to maintain and accommodate himself, and any dependants of his, without recourse to public funds".Paragraph 6 of the Jersey Immigration Rules defines “public funds" as:“any benefit paid by the Government of Jersey to any person who has not paid any contribution towards receipt of such benefit. For the purpose of these Rules, a person is not to be regarded as having (or potentially having) recourse to public funds merely because he is (or will be) reliant in whole or in part on public funds provided to his sponsor, unless, as a result of his presence in Jersey, the sponsor is (or would be) entitled to increased or additional public funds."A person's entitlement to benefit will not be determined by the Immigration Rules and falls to be considered separately from that person's immigration status. The purpose of the Immigration Rules is to provide that a person's immigration status might be affected by the type of public funds they may have recourse to. Termination of employmentThe period of a contract is determined by the employer and may not extend to the full validity of the work permit.If the employment of a work permit holder is terminated prematurely then the Customs and Immigration Service must be notified in writing before the employees last working day as it may be necessary to cancel the employee’s immigration permissions and the permissions of their dependents. The employer must set out the reasons for the employment being terminated.If a work permit holder has their employment terminated because of not passing a probationary period, or are dismissed by their employer, then they will be unable to seek employment elsewhere and will have their immigration permissions cancelled. They will be required to leave the Common Travel Area (UK, Channel Islands, Isle of Man) along with their dependents.If employers are found to be breaching employee rights, then this may have an adverse effect on future applications.If a work permit holder resigns from their post without a work permit in place for another employer, then they will have their immigration permissions cancelled and will be required to leave the Common Travel Area. Passport endorsementIf an employee has their immigration permissions cancelled, they will receive a wet ink stamp endorsement in their passport which varies the end date of their permissions. This does not have an adverse effect on a person’s immigration history. The employee will be given sufficient time to deal with their affairs before they will be expected to leave, this time period will vary depending on individual circumstances and how they plan to maintain and accommodate themselves without employment. DisputesThe Customs and immigration Service generally will not get involved in disputes between an employer and a work permit employee however we must be made aware of the context of the conflict or disagreement as action may need to be taken against the employer or the work permit employee. This policy does not cover employer/employee relations where the employee takes on additional part time employment with another employer. It is expected that any part-time employment is compliant with Control of Housing and Work (Jersey) Law 2012 and employment (Jersey) Law 2003.Work permit employees should contact the Jersey Advisory and Conciliation Service (JACS) if they enter into a dispute with their employer as this is not a matter for immigration to resolve.If, as a result of employment being terminated, the employee enters into a dispute with the employer which goes to an employment tribunal there is no requirement for the employee to remain in the Island as their case can be submitted and heard from outside the Common Travel Area. Requesting a review of a decisionIf an employer has a work permit application refused because the employment is not covered by this work permit policy, then a business case will be required and should be submitted in the first instance to The Head of Service, Jersey Customs and Immigration Service see appendix 5.Employment outside of those detailed in this policy will only be considered after satisfying the Minister for Justice and Home Affairs that the labour cannot be found from within the CTA and the temporary or long-term worker criteria can be met. If a work permit employee has their work permit and immigration permissions cancelled because they no longer meet the requirements for which the permissions were granted, they can apply in writing to The Head of Service, Jersey Customs and Immigration Service to have the decision reviewed, review of Immigration Decisions. Adverse immigration history and criminal convictionsIn general, a work permit application will not be approved to employ a person with an adverse immigration history, a criminal conviction, or their previous employment and conduct in the Island was unsatisfactory. Contravention of the Work Permit PolicyWhere an employer believes that they may be in contravention of the work permit policy then they should contact Immigration as soon as possible at immigration@gov.je for advice.Employers found to have breached the work permit policy will be required to provide a written explanation as to why the policy was not followed, how they have rectified the issue and what procedures they have put in place to avoid future contraventions of the work permit policy.A Senior Officer will review the circumstances of the breach, issue a formal warning and apply additional layers of scrutiny to applications. Subsequent breaches will be reviewed by a Senior Manager and may result in the employer losing the ability to apply for work permits.An employer or employee found to have provided documentation that they know to be false in support of a work permit application or visa application will be committing an offence under the Immigration Act 1971 as extended to Jersey by the Immigration (Jersey) Order 2021 and may be liable to a fine, a period of imprisonment, or both. Any immigration permissions will be cancelled and any future applications for work permits or visas will be refused. Processing timesApplications should be submitted to allow sufficient time for the work permit application to be processed and where necessary sufficient time for the employee to apply for their visa.work permit processing time is 3 weeks however this may take longer if the application is incomplete and additional documents requestedvisa processing times are approximately 3 weeks from the date that the applicant attends the visa application centre (this may vary depending on the country of application)Consequently, it is the applicant's responsibility to ensure a realistic start date is selected when applying for a work permit. An employee must not travel to Jersey until their work permit and/or visa has been issued otherwise they may be refused entry at the border. This may jeopardise any future applications for immigration permissions. Non-visa nationals, including EU nationals, do not require a visa for entry where a work permit has been issued for 6 months or less however they must not travel to the Common Travel before the start (issue) date on the work permit otherwise they may be refused at the Border. Depending on the type of work permit originally issued, it may be extended, or an employee can switch to another employer, subject to meeting the conditions for the work permit route, the relevant application requirements, and payment of the relevant fee. Some work permit routes restrict extensions and the ability to switch employer. An application for further leave to remain will also need to be submitted if the work permit application is successful for the work permit holder and any dependants. RefundsWork permit fees are non-refundable unless an application has been submitted for an individual who does not require a permit. In Country Work Permit ApplicationsApplications may be considered for employees who are in authorised employment in the UK, Jersey, other Channel Islands or Isle of Man. In these cases, the same eligibility criteria apply, and a work permit may be granted for a period not exceeding 3 years. If the application is for an individual who is in employment in Jersey, the new employer may be informed that their application has been approved “in principle". Written confirmation of the resignation and their last working day will be required from the current employer before the permit can be issued. The new employer must also indicate in writing when they are to start. The work permit will be made valid from that start date. Any gap between the end and start date will constitute a break in continuous residency which will impact when the work permit holder will become eligible to apply for indefinite leave to remain. PromotionAn employer, who wishes to promote an employee, must apply for a new work permit. A new work permit will not be required when the job and employment conditions have remained the same, but the employee has simply taken on additional responsibility within that role.If an employer wishes to move an employee to another post, then an application must be made for a new work permit and the employee must apply for further leave to remain. Acquisition or re-structuring of business or companyIf a work permit holder is employed by a company that has been acquired by another business entity or re-structured to form a new enterprise, it will not be necessary for a fresh application to be made if the duties and responsibilities are the same. The company should notify the Jersey Customs and Immigration Service in writing of the change and details of those permit holders affected.

Appendix Appendix 1: Long-term Work Permit OccupationsOccupations eligible for the long-term (previously skilled) work permit employment route are derived from the Standard Occupation Classification Codes assessed by the UK Migration Advisory Committee to meet Level 3 or above of the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF). Salary thresholds are derived from UK Skilled Work Visa lists. Employers must demonstrate that an employee will be paid the minimum salary threshold or the going rate for the role whichever is higher. For example: minimum salary thresholds are based on an employee being given an hourly rate for working 40 hours over 52 weeks per year (for example, £15.00 x 40 x 52 = £31,200) employees contracted for full time employment on less than 40 hours per week must be paid a higher hourly rate to achieve the minimum salary threshold (for example, £16.22 x 37 x 52 = £31,200) employees contracted for full time employment on more than 40 hours per week must be paid the hourly rate which equates the minimum salary threshold (for example, £15.00 x 45 x 52 = £35,100 More detailed information on the occupations listed in this appendix can be found using the CascotWeb.
