Working in a foreign country is always challenging; adapting to a new culture, being away from loved ones, and even the language barrier can be negative factors for those who are willing to do so. However, many people emigrate in search of better job opportunities elsewhere in the world.
One of the basic requirements for working in a foreign country is to prove that you are qualified to do a particular job, although of course this is only required for jobs that require experience or high qualifications.
The most effective way to demonstrate the knowledge acquired to perform a specific job is to have academic credentials that support it and are legalized for use in the country where the job opportunity is located.
Essential Steps
To carry out this process, the person must legalize his or her documents in his or her country of origin so that they comply with international agreements and are valid in Cuba, and also translate them into Spanish for use in Cuba.
Once this part is completed, the person who is interested in working in Cuba must apply for a work permit that will allow him/her to do so.
