Pensions of researchers What happens when researchers move? What can and cannot be transferred? What
is regulated at EU level and what is regulated at national level?
Entry conditions
Non-EU national (or "third country national”) researchers have several possibilities to
enter the European Union for work. The Scientific Visa Package aims to facilitate
third country researchers' entry conditions. The Blue Card Directive is more recent,
and deals with the entry into the EU for the purposes of highly qualified employment.
