Chile’s National Immigration Service has introduced a free digital Work Authorisation Certificate to help foreign nationals and employers verify whether an individual is authorised to work in the country.

According to a report by Fragomen and posted by the Economic Times on Friday, the Habilitación Laboral Certificate is available through SERMIG’s online immigration platform and features a QR code that allows employers to verify the document digitally.

The new certificate is intended to make work authorisation checks faster and reduce administrative paperwork for foreign workers and employers.

It provides digital confirmation of a foreign national’s work authorisation status and can be accessed online at no cost.

However, SERMIG has clarified that the certificate does not replace a comprehensive assessment of a foreign worker’s immigration and work status.
