How To Become A Citizen of Greenland I Visa, Residence and Work Permits 

I think we all wish for direct flights to north america... But it might open up once new international airports open up in 2023.!

Awesome! What are you gonna be doing here?

@@AlexAmasaOlsen I don't really know yet!😂 I have to figure out many more things about Greenland before i move there😂 I just know i'm gonna have a great time there!

Thats awesome! And a good attitude to have😁 Good luck! In regards to Covid-19 restrictions, Greenland will update the restrictions on the 15.april. Hopefully we will know more at that time.

True, when I was applying for a student visa for the US (i did a highschool exchange year), I could not even bring a family member inside the american embassy in Denmark. And all those weird questions..😅

@@AlexAmasaOlsen It's like the movies, right? After two years of living in the UK I had another interview to allow me permanent residency. I went around the house memorizing all the littlest things, like what brand toothpaste my husband used, did he put his right shoe on first or his left shoe on? Convinced I was going to be interrogated, it was less invasive than the original application. I mean, the US and the UK are prime targets for people illegally entering, Australia was so much easier! Did you find Australia an easy process?

Thanks, I hope we open up again this summer😄

@@AlexAmasaOlsen anyway greenland to canada by boat ferry if u have information regarding this plz provide ..i want go to canada throw boat

@@jattblood9331 I havent heard of this being possible, only if you get some private boats doing that long journey

Yes, I do hope we get flights to the US pretty soon, when a new airport opens in Nuuk. Makes no sense to fly to Denmark or Iceland to get to the US..😅

My wife is from the Netherlands. When she was young flying back from there they made an emergency landing in Greenland. It must have been in the 70s if I remember correctly. I’d love to go there. Plus the Faroe Islands and Iceland. I speak a little Danish. So I think I’d adapt well with people easily. Plus I’m extremely social and enjoy anything new and different to me.

@@williamchristian8705 Thats cool! I would like to see Iceland and the Faroe Islands as well.. Hav quite a few study buddies from university living there :-) Hope you get to see Greenland at one point!

@@AlexAmasaOlsen Tak..

No problem!

I have another video called: How to get a job in Greenland, it might help you out and provide some valuable links in the description😊

True.. How long did you have to be in Greenland before you could apply for residency?

Nice! Qaqortoq is a nice place, was there in May:-)

Thank you! Just make sure to always hit the like button an odd numbered times, as it has to stay blue..😉 How is that bitcoin ride going? Hope you have increased that Portfolio quite dramatically!

@@AlexAmasaOlsen Hahaha! My pleasure, actually not - not only your like button is blue but also so is my wist from all that pounding. Bitcoin, and crypto run feels good. A slight slowdown, but still in milllions of dollars. My target for this bull market is to reach minimum 10 million usd networth.

Daamn! Thats awesome! Actually I was contacted by another viewer about mining crypto up here, but he got discouraged when I mentioned the price pr. kwh..😅

@@AlexAmasaOlsen Personally, I recommend for all wannabe miners just buying crypto and holding it no matter what. In the longer run the holder generally gets rich because the community is global so you in Greenland can benefit someone in Germany buying crypto.

I can look at the food situation😁 But to be honest in Nuuk you can get almost anything a supermarket would give you elsewhere, so no need to starve. Are you already a licensed pilot?

​@@AlexAmasaOlsen Thanks for your reply! Hahaha, alright that's good to hear ^^ I'm really, really picky when it comes to food! I've seen a documentary about the traditional greenlandic cuisine and I was shocked and thought "well.. I'm more of a chicken and nutella guy, how am I going to survive on fish and seal" :-D No I'm not a licensed pilot yet. I'm 27 and have been self employed ever since I left school so there was no time for that. I'm looking to change professions tho because that's my childhood dream and I don't mind moving to any country on this earth as long as I get to fly. Air Greenland just so happens to be flying the airplane I love the most (Dash 8) AND has a 2 year apprentice program with a partner school in denmark. So the tasks for me would be to become eligible for work in Greenland as well as learning the language. I just passed the assessment and simulator test for a well known airline pilot school in Austria so I'm somewhat confident that I could make it :-) However none of their partner airlines is flying the Dash 8, so I'm keen on trying to get into the Air Greenland Program.

@@DmdMixZ Hehe, we do have chicken AND Nutella... I had Chicken yesterday on the barbeque.. Hehe. I know quite a lot of pilots up here who actually got fired from their job, flying the Dash 8, as they have quite a lot of pilots for particularly that machine. And the future holds, that Nuuk will get an international airport, meaning the current international airport in Kangerlussuaq, will be flown to less frequently. As most of the Dash 8 domestic flights are from Nuuk->Kangerlussuaq, I would say the demnd for Dash 8 might change. Of course, what do I know.. But definitely get a hold of Air Greenland and ask them! I also think flying here in Greenland is very beautiful, so definitely check your options. And best of luck!

Usually citizenship in any nordic country (norway, sweden, iceland and faroe islands) would make living in Greenland easier. But since Denmark controls citizenship in Greenland, the danish system would be the most practical to go through. Glad that you like the big island!😁😊

To get to ex. Spain you have to fly to Denmark first, then from denmark you fly to Spain. A return ticket to denmark from greenland is roughly $1.300, so quite pricey😫

@@AlexAmasaOlsen thanks for answering my question!

Hehe, each has their own taste😆

Please elaborate as its a beautiful destination

I definitely accept that you left out Jordan and North Korea. But i would have called you an enthusiast if you had left out your own country too

Good luck, hope you realize your dream😊😁

You can also travel here on a travel visa for 3months without a job. But if you come from outsisde of the nordic countries, you need a job before being able to apply for working visa.

Nuuk had 18.9°C last july, so it can get warm here. And Narsarsuaq had 23,4°C last july, so yes some days are ok warm...😎

They totally should! But they have now started a fasttrack program for jobs in high demand, such as construction workers, which might expedite the process.. Some people move here, but wouldnt say run to this isolated country😅

Glad it helped!

The inks are under the video in the description. You can click a "show more" tab and get the links shown.😊

I guess it depends on who you ask😅

Thanks😊

Yes, or take 3 months vacation here while finding a job.. And they also got a new law in regards to fasttracking new people. Meaning for companies that has applied for that programme, you will automatically/faster get a work permit once you have a signed job contract.

Go to www.nyidanmark.dk, there you can read more.. Also, you can only get a permit ro either denmark or greenland, as it it two different countries..

@@AlexAmasaOlsen thanks

You can look up internet speeds at tusass.gl or comby.gl

Normal speeds are 30/5mbits down/upload, but you can get faster internet as a business

If I was you I would ask the Danish Immigration services (Denmark handles immigration to Greenland).

Awesome! The only issue would be getting a work visa. You have to go through the danish immigration services for that. But sometimes the construction company couls helo you in that process😊

We do have two banks (Grønlandsbanken and Bank Nordik) and then some government funded investment companies such as Greenland Holding. No mortgages companies, but if you could get some American mortgage companies to give mortgages to Greenlandic real estate, I think there would be a market. I have been waiting for 6 weeks now, to get a mortgage offer from a danish mortgage firm, so thats a pain in the b..t..

Try this real estate website: lm.gl/

Maybe at a cafe or something.. Try to search for cafe in Nuuk. Cafe Pascucci and Cafe Esmeralda are pretty good, maybe try those.. Tourism is down the drain, maybe it comes back next year😅

You have to do job searches in your field of work through Greenland employment agencies. You then have to get the job, so you need to have good qualifications and meet a need that cannot be filled by a person already in Greenland. Sometimes you can bypass this rule by being able to prove that you have enough money and experience to start your own business. It isn't easy to immigrate anywhere, most places have specific requirements. Even in Pitcairn, which has a dying population, you still need to meet specific requirements. Svalbard, you have to prove you are able to obtain a home and work. No one wants people who cannot fill a service or need, they want skilled individuals who will help their country/territory to grow and develop.

Basically you need a signed work contract. Someone has to have hired you.😊

I am pretty sure companies like MT Højgaard, Permagreen, Istak, Munck, EMJ Atcon or some plumbing companies would love a welder, try them out😎

What do you mean by Greenland Urban legend?

As far as I know there is not data science studies here in Greenland. What many people do (myself included) is to study in Denmark and then go back to Greenland.

@@AlexAmasaOlsen TQ for kind information 🙏,is finding part time job in Denmark easy??as a student 🙏

I would ask immigration service, it would be terrible if I told you something wrong😅😊

Thank you for replying my comment please let me know i have a flight in April 20 2022

By the way i am a reunification residence permit

Check out suli.gl and press health services

Hehe nnnnnnnice

It is usually always easier to get employment if your degree or craft is desirable.😉

Yes, it is possible. I actually made a video about that, you should watch it :-)

I reolied your other comment

You go to: nyidanmark.dk and find the appropriate solution. But you definitely need a job first

@@AlexAmasaOlsen What do you have to do to expatriate from the US if you have a set SS disability income and want to retire in Greenland? Appreciate your channel

@@YAHsBurntButterfly Phew, thats a very specific question :-) I guess you have to ask for a visa of some sort. Better ask the danish immigration office, as my guess of an answer could very well be wrong :-)

@@AlexAmasaOlsen Thank you for responding! Happy (cold) trails from New Mexico, USA !! Shalom

I would prove difficult, but there are some from Iraq in Nuuk😎 But think they lived in Denmark before, hence had a better option. But never say never, always try!

Hehe, you totally could, but trust me you definitely could die...😅

Sounds like a plan😁

We definitely have plenty place here. I think overpopulation is mainly due to a huge concentration in cities nowadays. Just spread out man😅😉

Damn...

@@AlexAmasaOlsen Portugal 🇵🇹 D7 visa in processing I am digital nomad move from Egypt

Not sure I understand your question🤔

😑 An au pair is someone who has experience caring for children, infants, and can do household chores; Usually it's a job given to elderly women who need extra money or want to travel, or women who are looking for careers in child care, like teachers and such. What your asking is very inappropriate and not customary in countries in the west. I'm sure most don't want a foreign grown man around their daughters and this has nothing to do with the country you come from, when there's children involved, this is just considered inappropriate.

Sure do! It makes no sense in such a globalised world...
