According to statistics from October 2007, Denmark expects that it will have issued 50% more Green Cards for 2007 than for 2006. The Danish Green Card is a non-renewable, six-month residence permit that allows non-European Union skilled migrants to enter Denmark to search for a job. However, it is not a work permit.

workpermit.com has a new section with up-to-date information about the new points-based system coming into effect in the United Kingdom this year. We will be updating this section with new information and guidance on how the Tier system will work as details are released.

The United Kingdom will phase out low-skilled migration coming from outside of the European Union as part of sweeping changes to its immigration laws. Low-skilled migration is intended to be regulated under Tier 3 of the new points system, but plans to implement Tier 3 have been "indefinitely suspended."

An "Australia Needs Skills Expo" will take place in the United Kingdom on the weekend of 15-16 March 2008. The Expo is being hosted in London by the Australian government. Online registration at the government's immigration website is required; only those selected by the government will be allowed to attend. They will then be told the location and time of the expo.
