Immigration Authority’s decision

In general, the decision can be adopted within 30 days in case of standard procedure or within 10 or 5 business days in case of the accelerated procedure. Please note that our prior experience shows that the Immigration authority can prolong the term up to 90 days, in case it considers that (a) more information is required or (b) it
requires more time to adopt the decision.

Once the decision is made, the applicant and his dependants that applied with him/her can submit their biometric data to the Migration Authority and submit additional documents that wasn’t submitted earlier in the process (only allowed for tuberculosis tests, insurance policies and original employment contracts).

TRP cards will be made and can be received by each applicant personally (children also need to be present. Upon receiving the cards, the applicants will need to submit:

1. Health insurance policy for all applicants;
2. A notice from a Latvian doctor/medical institution that the applicant is not suffering from tuberculosis in active phase – for first time applicants only (we can assist in arranging an appointment).

It is possible to obtain the TRP card within 10 or 2 business days. The stamp duties are the following:

1. Within 10 business days: EUR 15
2. Within 2 business days: EUR 30
