Pathways to Myanmar Residency and Citizenship

Myanmar

The covered employment route is limited to qualifying investment employers supported by the Myanmar Investment Commission or a Special Economic Zone committee. It requires the relevant foreign-worker registration and immigration approvals. Confirm current processing for the intended work location; an ordinary business visa alone does not establish permission for any job.

See the Southeast Asia guide for selected routes and the distinctions between entry, residence, and work permission.
