Intra-company transfer
# Intra-company transfer

An intra-company transfer is where a company reassigns an employee to work in a different physical office space, which may be in another country.

Many countries offer expedited processes to obtain travel visas and work permits for intra-company transfers if the applicant performs certain categories of work. These categories of work may include executives, managers, long-term employees, and those with specialized expertise. The World Trade Organization's General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) makes provision for intra-company transfers of staff.
