One partner for the whole move
Most providers stop at the visa. Mazi carries the case from the offer letter to the residence card — and stays for the apartment, the tax number (AFM) and the school run. From one senior hire to a seasonal workforce.
Skilled & senior hires
Specialist roles, management transfers and highly qualified employment.
Typical routes: the EU Blue Card, the Tech or Talent visa, or an intra-corporate transfer.

Employers recruiting staff from third countries, in ones or in dozens.

From offer letter to settled employee — and every renewal after
Timelines: a route answer within the first week. Most permit routes, metaklisi included, then take several months end to end. Plan your dates; we confirm a dated plan after the route check.
Software where it helps, people where it counts
One place to manage every international hire.
Every hire at a clear stage, the documents still outstanding beside it, and the permits that expire soon flagged before they slip — without chasing multiple providers. Your hiring team works from the same picture. Each person sees what their role needs: HR follows the whole case, the employee sees their own documents and updates.
Who answers your employee
Your employee is never left wondering who to ask. Quick questions get an instant answer, and anything about the case itself goes to a person who knows the file.
