The Critical Skills Employment Permit supports recruitment into strategically important occupations where the role, remuneration and applicant meet the current eligibility rules.
From March 2026 the standard remuneration threshold for relevant listed roles increased, and the occupations list was updated again in May 2026. Coutts Consultants coordinates irish critical skills employment permit coordination as a defined Irish professional service.
The engagement begins with the client's objective and a service-specific review of bona-fide Irish employer, eligible occupation, current remuneration threshold, qualifications, two-year job offer, applicant details and permit application. We then establish the appropriate route, assemble the required information and coordinate the filing, application or professional work with the relevant Irish authority, institution or specialist. Where Irish law reserves the work to a solicitor, tax adviser, auditor, immigration practitioner or other regulated professional, that work is undertaken by an appropriately qualified provider.
Registrations, licences, permits, banking and regulatory approvals remain subject to the decision of the relevant authority or institution.
