The "EU Blue Card" refers to a newly introduced residence permit allowing highly skilled, non-EU nationals to work and live in Cyprus, especially in sectors facing shortage of highly qualified personnel. The Blue Card scheme simplifies the process for qualified individuals to work and reside in the European Union and is valid in all European countries excluding Denmark and Ireland. The EU Blue Card gives as well access to EEA Member states (Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway).

The EU Blue Card scheme will enhance the framework for attracting highly qualified professionals, thus enabling Cyprus to further establish itself as a hub for innovation and technology. Unlimited Blue Card positions are available in the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) sector, pharmaceutical research and maritime industry (excluding ship captains and crew).
