Larger numbers of immigrants are heading there, and they want to know: <\/span>how can we work in Chile?<\/b><\/p>\n First, you’ll need to apply for a Chilean work permit. There are two types of work visas. The first is the <\/span>visa subject to contract<\/span>, and the other is the <\/span>working holiday visa<\/span>. The visa subject to contract is exactly what you might expect \u2013 a visa that relies entirely on your contract with your Chilean employer. This visa is valid for two years and can continue to be renewed for another two years at a time.

This means that it applies to both Chilean and foreign-born citizens looking to work in Chile.<\/span><\/p>\n There are also certain situations in which the applicant could be granted the work permit for free, or without a written contract.
