    Under the International Mobility Program, Canada allows multinational companies (MNCs) to seek work permits in Canada for their employees working outside the country. This allows such employees to enter Canada under business class immigration as Intra Company Transferees. This arrangement is particularly advantageous for the MNCs that can use the experience and expertise of highly skilled foreign workers or senior managers/executives working at one of their offices outside Canada.

    Secure Intra-Company Transfer (ICT) Work Permit

    Intra-Company Transfer (ICT) Work Permit is a temporary or limited-duration permit that allows foreign workers employed with MNCs to work in Canada for a limited duration. ICT is a company-specific or closed work permit that allows foreign nationals to work with their company that has its parent/subsidiary/branch/affiliate company in Canada. It helps them achieve business continuity in Canada and even expand their business, backed with the specialized knowledge of certain employees or the experience of senior managers and executives.

    Usually, as the first requirement, a foreign national must obtain a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) from a Canadian employer to apply for a work permit. The purpose is to prove that bringing the particular employee to Canada will have no negative impact on the Canadian labour force. This is where the ICT Canada work permit stands out because it enables foreign nationals to secure a work permit without an LMIA, securing which can often prove to be a costly, extended and stressful process.
