This visa allows seasonal workers to engage in employment for up to 270 days within a continuous 365-day period, with the option for renewal. Officially recognized within the framework of the Government of the Republic Regulation, it opens the door to various seasonal jobs.
These seasonal roles encompass:
Crop and animal production, hunting, and related service activities.
Fishing and aquaculture.
Forestry and logging.
Accommodation service activities.
Food and beverage service activities.
Food production.
Manufacture of soft drinks.
