EURES – a reliable partner for safe and effective recruitment across Europe.

The State Employment Agency of Latvia, together with the EURES (European Employment Services) network, offers a vacancy registration service for EU/EEA employers who wish to recruit job candidates in Latvia.

Please note that only existing job vacancies with clearly defined working conditions (such as salary, working hours, qualification requirements, contract type, etc.) can be registered.

The following procedure and steps apply:

Your vacancy has to be registered in the Public employment service of the company’s home country.

  1. You have to fill in a vacancy registration form
    • Vacancy registration form
      In the vacancy form, specify all necessary information, as well vacancy ID number from registration in your home country.
  2. Send filled vacancy form to EURES Latvia general mailbox: eures@nva.gov.lv  Alternatively, you can contact EURES advisers of your home country and ask for help for vacancy registration in Latvia on your behalf. If the employer registers vacancies in Latvia for the first time, then vacancy registration via home country EURES is mandatory.  Contacts information: EURES advisers in European countries.
  3. EURES Latvia will check the form and after confirmation will translate and publish your vacancy in the State Employment Agency’s local offices throughout Latvia and on the State Employment Agency’s website: http://www.nva.gov.lv/eures.
