Do I need a work permit to work at a FIFA World Cup 26™ event?
Whether or not you need a work permit depends on
- whether you’ve been invited by FIFA, or
- the type of work you’ll be doing at the event, if you haven’t been invited
You’ll know you’ve been invited to work if you’ve received information directly from FIFA.
