Thank you! very informative as I was not aware of this quick and simple way to understand the EU requirement's. I am currently based out of US and always wanted to know of EU nations criteria.

I am glad you found it interesting! People always think about Canada as an alternative to the US, (or even as their first choice these days), but Europe is a great place to live and work so I thought I would share something outside of my usual content this week!

[@karalove3786]

@@emilek1938 for visa purposes the certificate cannot be older than 6 months by the time one applies for the visa at the embassy of your home country, but if you don't need a visa it's a moot point. Then again different countries have different rules. I'd suggest checking with your local embassy website or email them if the information is not started on their website. For South Africa yes the certificate cannot be older than 6 months when one applies for a visa, otherwise you will need confirmation from your employer that your work is conducted in English as was the case for me.
