After establishing the regulations relative to the specific situation and country of origin, job seekers and employers must contact the employment and income arm of the government called the Centrum voor Werk en Inkomen (CWI) to process applications for work permits. CWI is an independent administrative body (ZBO) that works on assignment from the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment.
