Amid an acute shortage of professional builders in Lithuania, business people expect an increasing number of third-country nationals to come to the country for work. Lithuania last year issued 22,961 visas to non-EU nationals planning to work in the country and 35% of them said they would work as builders, the paper said, citing figures from the Migration Department. Some 19,169 visas were issued during the first half of this year, with 33% of the recipients planning to work as builders. For example, Montuotojas CEO Alfonsas Jaras says Belarusians make up around 15% of the industrial construction company's workforce.
