Authors: Eng.LSM.lv (Latvian Public Broadcasting)

A video published recently by the Office of Citizenship and Migration Affairs (PMLP) provides a handy English-language guide to the procedure required when inviting a guest worker to Latvia.

The video (above) was published on the PMLP YouTube channel on January 25 and it must be admitted that its English-language explanation is more than a little confusing. Nevertheless, it may be of use as a starting point for employers seeking information.
