Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum investment for an expatriate work permit?

Work permit eligibility is generally tied to a minimum foreign investment threshold, commonly cited at USD 50,000, alongside a local-to-expatriate employment ratio. We assess your specific case against current BIDA/BEPZA guidance.

How long does a work permit and visa take to process?

Processing times vary by nationality and sector, but a standard work permit and employment visa typically takes several weeks once complete documentation is submitted. We manage the process in parallel with your company formation where possible.

What local employment ratio must foreign companies maintain?
Regulators generally expect a defined ratio of local to expatriate employees, which varies by sector and investment size. We help you plan hiring so your expatriate permits remain defensible as you scale.
