Om in Nederland voor een periode langer dan 90 dagen te werken heeft een geestelijk bedienaar een verblijfsvergunning en een tewerkstellingsvergunning (TWV) nodig. De verblijfsvergunning en de TWV worden samen aangevraagd als gecombineerde vergunning voor verblijf en arbeid (GVVA). De Immigratie- en Naturalisatiedienst beoordeelt deze aanvraag. Voor de TWV vraagt de Immigratie- en Naturalisatiedienst advies bij het UWV, het UWV voert een beoordeling uit en brengt op basis hiervan advies uit aan de IND. Het is daarom belangrijk dat wanneer
uw werkgever deze verblijfsvergunning wenst aan te vragen, u deze aanvraag goed voorbereidt.
