Visas/Work Permits

Obtaining a visa is not as complicated as it may seem. Most countries insist that the au-pair has found a family before she/he travels and that the family either obtain the visa for her/him or write a supporting letter.
Visa's are not expensive to apply for but there are many rules and regulations the family and the au-pair must abide by. The best websites for all the information you need is:
