Välismaalaste seaduse muutmise seadus (Euroopa Liidu sinine kaart)

This Estonian bill amends the Aliens Act (Välismaalaste seadus) to introduce or adjust rules for the EU Blue Card, the residence and work permit scheme for highly qualified non-EU nationals. The change aligns Estonian law with EU rules on admitting skilled third-country workers. The bill is before the Riigikogu, Estonia's parliament, and was assigned to its Constitutional Committee. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text. The bill would mainly affect non-EU nationals with higher education or significant professional experience who seek to work in Estonia, and the employers who hire them. It may also affect the immigration authorities that process these permits. The exact conditions, such as salary thresholds and qualification requirements, would be set out in the full text.
