Luxembourg.</p><p>The European blue card is an “extra special” card, that offers a variety of advantages and allows you to skip the usual “market test” where future employers must prove they couldn’t find any other person to complete the same job. Not needing to fulfill this specific criteria makes the procedure easier and faster.</p><h2 class="article-title">Qualification criteria</h2><div class="ad-slot ad-slot--inside-article is-visuallyhidden"> <div class="ad-slot__inside-article"> <div class="js-ad js-ad--inside-article" id="inside-article" data-position="inside-article" data-articleid="" data-tags="" data-pagetype="" data-container=""></div> </div> </div><p>To qualify for a blue card, third-country nationals must satisfy three conditions of higher professional qualification. They must have concluded a valid employment contract with a duration of at least one year. They must provide documentary evidence for the required professional qualifications in the activity or sector mentioned within the employment contract. They must receive a salary at least equivalent to 1.2 or 1.5 times the amount of the gross annual average salary in Luxembourg.</p><p>Don’t forget, you will of course need to ask for the authorisation of the EU blue card before entering Luxembourg. You will need to submit an application for a <b>temporary authorisation to stay</b> to the <a
