Work visa

Guyana's work permit policy is informal due to a small population. Because there is a growing demand for skilled labor, the Ministry of internal affairs, the agency responsible for issuing work permits, promptly responds to requests.

A business visa is issued to individuals traveling to Guyana to start a business, attend meetings, or train local workers in the use of equipment purchased in foreign countries. Foreign missionaries who wish to participate in Volunteer Services in Guyana can also be issued a business visa. If the applicant for a work permit is self-employed, he or she must provide proof of the business plan and sufficient funds to invest, including working capital. As a general rule, the applicant is advised to include a company or establish a branch office with a legal address in Guyana.

Under such conditions, the prospective employer must apply on behalf of the employee to the Ministry of internal affairs for a work permit. If the ministry satisfies the applicant's Authority, the employer is provided with a letter stating that the employer can hire a foreigner.
