FAQよくある質問

Common Employer Questions企業様からよくいただくご質問

How much does foreign worker recruitment cost?

Costs vary by role, headcount, and scope — see our Employer Workforce Solutions page for standard fee ranges, which are illustrative pending written confirmation for your specific requirement.

How long does the process take?

This depends on visa category and candidate sourcing, but COE processing alone typically takes one to three months. We don't promise a fixed timeline before assessing your specific requirement.

Do we need a Registered Support Organization?

If you're accepting a Specified Skilled Worker (i) hire, a support plan is a statutory requirement, which most employers outsource to an RSO such as Global Access rather than building in-house.
