                                      Respected&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am an Indian national, one of my friend advised to visit Uruguay, and he described as the country is a peaceful and filled with good humans. I went through the internet for more information and i am very much impressed with the people living in Uruguay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am in India now, i have some money to invest in a small business. If i want to start a small restaurant, what are all the formalities to be fulfilled by me. And how many days it will take to complete the government documents. First of all is it possible to invest in Uruguay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please kindly help me and guide me how to start the process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you very much</description>

                                      Posted: Tue Dec 05, 2006 4:19 am&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
                                      &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
                                      &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 18px; line-height: normal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;WORK PERMIT IN URUGUAY&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A foreign national may work in Uruguay under a permanent (Resident) visa, or under one of the temporary visas, for a period lasting the length of the employment contract.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An applicant may work in Uruguay while his or her work permit application and other papers are being processed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;Requirements&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A Labour Contract must be executed by the company's Uruguayan affiliate. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;The Process&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Applicants who enter Uruguay in temporary status may change status to that of resident, provided that the individual has not over-stayed the allowable maximum days allocated as a temporary visitor. The application is made directly with Immigration authorities in Uruguay upon the request of the employee's Uruguayan company. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;Documentations&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Documents required for a resident application through work may include but are not limited to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1) Valid passport with last entry stamp and tourist visa or card as applicable;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2) Legalized certificate evidencing that the sponsoring company is incorporated in Uruguay;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3) Job offer letter on company letterhead duly signed by the employer's legal representative indicating the employee's new job title, description of duties, and salary;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4) Proof of company's inscription with Uruguayan social security and tax departments;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5) Health certificates;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6) Police certificates of good conduct from the country of residence during the 5 most recent years;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7) Interpol certificate may be required depending on country of nationality and/ or last place of residence;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img src=&quot;images/smiles/icon_cool.gif&quot; alt=&quot;Cool&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt; Passport-sized photographs;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9) Marriage certificate duly legalized (if applicable).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
10) Labour Contract duly executed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please note that requirements are subject to change based on the Labour and Immigration authorities of Uruguay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;Family &amp;amp; Dependents&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The working spouse of a work permit holder is not automatically authorized to work in Uruguay; a separate application must be filed at the same time as that of the expatriate.</description>

Can anyone help me out with this?&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi John,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I lived in Costa Rica for 3 years (San Jose area), are you one of those expats that want to &amp;quot;escape&amp;quot; Costa Rica? I did and moved to Boquete, Panama for a year. Now, I'm back in Canada and looking at getting out of here once again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers,&lt;br /&gt;

                                      Hi,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My wife and I are thinking of retiring to Uruguay and wonder if anyone has details of the process involved in securing permanent residency.  We have lived in other countries so are used to the bureaucratic processes that are normally involved.  We would be hoping to carry out the process from within Uruguay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We are planning to arrive in Montevideo later this month so would also be pleased to meet other expatriates living in Uruguay.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Best regards&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

                                      &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
                                      I read on the escapeartist.com web pages that by buying property in Uruguay and taking up residency you can get a second passport.&lt;br /&gt;
Is this correct? If so what is the procedure?</description>
