Brazil - New rules for deportation of foreigners from Brazil

20/8/2019

0 Comments

 
Montgomery and Associates report that on 25th July 2019, Ordinance No. 666 was published in the Official Gazette of the Union, which provides for the impediment of entry, repatriation and summary deportation of a dangerous person or whoever has committed an act contrary to the principles and purposes set forth in the Federal Constitution.

The new provision enacted by the Minister of Justice and Public Security, Sérgio Moro, defines a dangerous person as anyone associated with terrorism, organized crime or armed groups, in addition to soccer fans with a violent background.

The new law also provides that authorities will be able to use several tools to consider a foreigner as being dangerous, including information provided by intelligence agencies.

Speculators believe that the new regulation is timely when Moro is under criticism following media reports on mobile phone application conversations that raised questions about potential judicial overreach when he was the judge conducting the “Car Wash” corruption investigation. However, Moro affirms that the new approach does not change the generosity of Brazilian law with immigrants and refugees, but only inhibits people who are suspects of involvement in serious and specific criminal conduct.

Foreigners affected by the new regulations will have to either file their defense or leave Brazil within 48 hours after they are notified of their imminent deportation.

With the introduction of the new Brazilian Migration Law (Law No. 13,445/17), the “Foreigners’ Statute”, Law No. 6,815/80 (enacted during the Brazilian military regime), was revoked, representing a very important advance in Brazilian immigration policy since the idea that the migrant is a threat to national security was abandoned with the adoption of a new humanitarian approach.

The principles and guidelines of the new Brazilian migration policy include: (i) the non-criminalization of migration; (ii) the repudiation and prevention of xenophobia, racism and all forms of discrimination; and (iii) equal and free access by migrants to social services, programs and benefits, public goods, education, integral public legal assistance, work, housing, banking services and social security.
​
Therefore, Ordinance No. 666 is very controversial since the new Brazilian Migration Law assures multiple guarantees to avoid arbitrary action against those trying to enter Brazil and those already living here.

Brazil ratifies the Hague Convention on service abroad of judicial and extrajudicial documents in civil or commercial matters 31-05-2019

14/6/2019

0 Comments

 
On 20th March 2019, the Brazilian Federal Government enacted Decree No. 9,734/19 ratifying the wording of the Convention on service abroad of judicial and extrajudicial documents in civil or commercial matters, subscribed by Brazil in Hague, on 15th November 1965.

​With the accession of Brazil, the Convention now has 74 contracting countries and aims to create appropriate means to ensure that judicial and extrajudicial documents which should be object of service, summons or notification abroad between signatory countries are made aware to the recipient in a timely manner, improving the organization of mutual legal assistance between such signatory countries in order to simplify and expedite the service process.

Currently such service in Brazil is effected pursuant to the Inter-American Convention on Letters Rogatory (IAC). However, service under the IAC is arduous for a number of reasons, including (but not limited to): the documents to be served must be duly legalized, the translation must be legalized, the Court Clerk must sign the IAC application forms, and many (perhaps most) clerks have never seen an IAC application form. Thus a lot of time is spent educating the clerks on IAC procedure.

Moreover, the proper preparation of an IAC application for service in Brazil can easily take several months. Once the documents arrive in Brazil, the Brazilian Central Authority will then take 6 to 12 months to effect service and an additional 6 to 12 months thereafter to return the proof of service.

Once such service in Brazil shifts to the Hague procedure, it will be also less expensive since legalization will no longer be required.

Completion of forms will also be more expeditious without the need for legalization, and because the Court Clerk will no longer be required to submit an extensive application.

The Convention will enter into force in Brazil on 1st June 2019.

France - Summary of developments in Immigration Law from June 2018 to May 2019

14/6/2019

0 Comments

 
Karl Waheed of Karl Waheed Avocats, Paris, has produced the following summary of the changes that have taken place in French Immigration Law over the period June 2018 to May 2019.

French Immigration Chronology June 2018 to May 2019

I.
Posted Workers: the Directive of 28 June 2018 amends the 1996 directive on the posting of foreign workers


The new directive, which entered into force on 29 July 2018, makes substantial changes to the 1996 Directive, in particular by enshrining the principle of equal remuneration between posted workers and local workers. However, its impact on French law is limited, as the so-called hard core provisions of French labor law or mandatory provisions already applying to foreign employees seconded to France.

The 4 points to remember from the new directive:
• Equal pay between posted workers and local workers
• Extension of the labor law applicable to seconded employees
• Application of all local labor law in case of long-term secondment
• Strengthening the rights of temporary posted workers

Finally, it should be noted that under the law "Avenir professionnel", the government may, within six months of the promulgation of the law, transpose by ordinance the provisions of the directive of 28 June 2018

II.
The law of 5 September 2018 "for the freedom to choose one's professional future" brings new details on the control of illegal work in the framework of the posting of foreign workers


The law contains a number of provisions relating to the posting of workers and the fight against illegal work.

New provisions to combat illegal work
• Duty of care of the client or owner in respect of fines imposed on his co-contractor
• Display and dissemination of sanctions on a dedicated website.( Article L8224-3 of the Labor Code
• Professional secrecy is not enforceable against screening officers (Article L8113-5-2 of the Labour Code)
• Increase in the amount of the fines for failure to declare the posting and appointment of the legal representative.

Relaxation of certain procedures for short-term postings and for foreign employers repeatedly assigning foreign workers.
• The fixed contribution of 50 Euros for the declaration of posting is repealed (Article L1262-4-6 is repealed by the law of 5 September 2018).
• Abolition of the posting declaration and the appointment of the foreign employer representative for certain short-term benefits and operations.
• Adjustment of obligations imposed on foreign employers regularly posting paid staff in France.

III.
Presentation of the main measures that came into force on 1 March  2019 following the publication of several orders and decrees implementing the law of 10 September 10 2018 known as "Loi Collomb"


The last provisions of the law of 10 September 2018 on residence and integration entered into force on 1 March 2019. Six orders, a circular and three decrees have been issued to date concerning the application of these provisions. The measures impacting professional immigration and related family immigration are presented here.

The following provisions apply to applications filed after 1st March 2019.

Measures concerning ICT poqsted employees and ICT trainees (intra-group mobility)

Modification of the conditions for issuing ICT residence permits
- The seniority of the employee within the group of companies, prior to the temporary transfer to France, increases from three to six months.
- The seconded employee must respect a waiting period of six months outside the European Union between the end of an intragroup temporary transfer in France and a new request under the ICT system.
- The visa application can only be filed in a country outside the European Union.

Transposition of the (EU) 2016/801 Student / Researcher Directive, adopted on 11 May 2016

Replacement of the APS issued at the end of studies by a residence permit mention «recherche
job or business creation »:This temporary residence permit issued for the purpose of job search or business creation will be valid for one year.The beneficiaries of this card are:
- researchers residing in France providing proof that they have completed their research work
- students residing in France who have obtained a diploma equivalent to the degree of master or appearing on a list fixed by decree in France.
- former students who left the national territory, up to four years after graduation equivalent to the degree of master or on a list fixed by decree in France.

This card allows the exercise of any professional activity and to find a job or to create a company related to studies or research.
The conditions relating to the change of status remain the same as under the APS, in particular concerning the exemption from labour market test.

Creation of a multi-year residence permit entitled "mobility program" for students and researchers

This residence permit can be issued to foreign students and researchers in a mobility program in the EU. At the same time, foreign students and researchers admitted to stay in another EU Member State on a mobility program can stay in France for up to a year without having to apply for a residence permit.

Enlargement and security of residence cards mention «Passport Talent»

Securing the right to stay of the talent passport holder with the issuance of an APS: Any foreigner holding a long-stay visa marked "passport talent" will now be issued a Provisional Temporary Residence Permit (APS) for a period of 6 months, allowing him to return to France in case of international travel between expiry of his visa and the actual surrender of his residence permit.

Extension of the status "talent passport - qualified employee / innovative company": The system allowing the recruitment of foreign talent by companies recognized as innovative is extended to companies that do not have the status of a young innovative company within the meaning of Article 44 sexies-0 of the French Tax Code.


The company meeting the criteria will be issued by the Ministry of the Economy a certificate, which must be provided to the applicant for his visa application and / or residence permit.

In addition, the candidate's duties need not necessarily be linked to the company's research and development project, but can also, more generally, be linked to the economic, social, international and environmental development of the said project.

Extension of status "talent passport - national or international fame": The residence permit "passport talent - national or international renown" may be issued abroad whose national or international fame is established, and hence, likely to participate significantly and sustainably in economic development, management of territory or the influence of France.
The activity carried out in France may be in the artisanal domain, in addition to previous areas already authorized (scientific, literary, artistic, intellectual, educational or sports).

Provisions relating to family immigration

Reform of travel documents issued to minor aliens:
The DCEM (Minor Child Travel Document) is now the only travel document for foreign minors. The TIR (Republican Identity Title) which was reserved for foreign children born in France is deleted.
The period of validity of the document may be adjusted according to the duration of the residence permit held by the parent.

Expansion of beneficiaries of the accompanying family procedure for the statuses "talent passport" and "ICT":
The notion of family member has been extended to allow the couple's children and not only the children of the main holder of the talent passport or ICT status to benefit from the "Family" card.

Extension of rights for holders of a four-year residence permit

An alien who files an application for renewal of his four year residence permit  before its expiry date, may for three months from that date, justify the legality of his stay by presenting his expired card. During this period, he retains all of his social rights and his right to pursue a professional activity.


IV.
Government Order fixes the rights of UK nationals continuing to stay in France after
in case of hard Brexit


A transition period of 3 to 12 months

UK nationals continuing their stay and professional activities beyond the Brexit date may do so, as before such date, for a minimum period of three months from the Brexit date. A decree will be published (see V below) which will set the final end date of the transition, which will be within 12 months of the Brexit date. Beyond this final end date, the UK nationals must be in possession of the appropriate permits covering their stay and professional activities in France (Article 1 of the Order).

Presence of less than 5 years

UK nationals having resided for less than 5 years as of the Brexit date will have to apply for the various permits to stay, according to their status (student, employee, temporary worker, posted worker, independent professional, unemployment beneficiary, family member, long-term visitor etc.). Such permits, when allowing work, will not be conditioned to labour market tests (Article 2).

Presence of 5 years or more

UK nationals having resided for 5 years or more in France as of the Brexit date, will be entitled to the Residency Card, with 10 year validity (Article 3).

UK national practicing law in France

UK nationals who exercise the profession of lawyer ("avocat") in France, based on their EU rights, may continue to do for a period of 12 months from the Brexit date. Such lawyers may benefit from the disposition of the Article 89 of the law of 31 December 1971 (Article 13).

Article 89 of the law of 31 December 1971 facilitates the registration of foreign lawyers with a French bar association after showing that they "effectively and regularly practiced  French law on [French] national territory for a period of at least 3 years". Such activity needs to be demonstrated to the French bar association with which the foreign lawyer wishes to register. If over the three year period, the practice of French law was for a lesser period, the bar association will have the discretion to determine if the foreign lawyer has the capability of practicing French law.


Subsidiaries of law firms formed under UK law, and registered with a French bar association, on the Brexit date, may continue to pursue their activity in France beyond such date, even if no lawyer registered under a UK qualification is still practicing within such structure. No new structure under UK law may be created in France after the Brexit date (Article 16).

Reciprocity required

The Order states that the preferential treatment provided for UK national can be suspended by a State Council decree, after three months of the Brexit date, if the French government observes that the UK government has not taken equivalent dispositions [towards French nationals] (Article 19).

Other areas

The ten page order is quite dense. It touches on many areas (such as recognition of professional qualifications, cross-border service provision, welfare, health coverage, jobs reserved for French and EU nationals...) on which we will welcome your questions. A decree to implement this order will soon be published.

V.
Government Decree of 2 April 2019 specifies the conditions of issuance of the residence permits to British nationals residing regularly in France on the Brexit date and wishing to continue their stay and professional activity in France.



Decree n° 2019-264 of 2 April 2019 was published in the Journal Officiel on 3 April 2019. The following are the principle conditions of issuance of the residence permits to British nationals and their family members.

A transition period now fixed at 12 months

UK nationals and family members continuing their stay and professional activities beyond the Brexit date may do so for a maximum period of 12 months after the Brexit date. During this transition period they do not need to be in possession of a residence permit.

Residence permit application to be requested within 6 months following the Brexit

The UK nationals who wish to remain in France beyond this transition period will have 6 months after the Brexit date to apply for one of the appropriate residence permits.

How to apply for a residence permit

The decree details the documents that UK nationals and their family members will provide in support of their application according to the appropriate residence permit they are eligible to.

Tax amount

The amount of the tax due for the issuance of a residence permit is reduced to 100 euros for British nationals and their family members instead of 269 euros applicable to third country nationals.


VI.
Law of 10 September 2018 on asylum coming into force between January, 1st 2019 and March, 1st 2019


Resettlement: The law of 10 September 2018 adds a new disposition to the article L741-1 of the Ceseda. From now on the OFPRA can organize missions in a Non-UE State in order to assess asylum applications and then assess the resettlement of asylum seekers in situation of high vulnerability. If those people are to be protected by an international protection (asylum or subsidiary protection), they are then authorized to travel and settle in France.
However, this raises questions on the right to appeal decisions made during those missions. It seems impossible under these circumstances to file a proper appeal, since people are not on the French territory and since the CNDA (French Asylum Court of appeal), based in Montreuil, France, is the only jurisdiction competent to judge OFPRA’s decisions.

Registration time of application: The law of 10 September 10th 2018 strengthens access to the asylum procedure by reducing the deadline of application for protection after entering French territory. Asylum seekers who entered irregularly or maintained irregularly on the territory used to see their demand registered on the accelerated procedure if they registered their application more than 120 days after entering French territory. The new law reduces this deadline to 90 days. This means that if an application is registered 90 days after entering the territory, the application will be placed under the accelerated procedure.
Under the accelerated procedure, the OFPRA will rule within 15 days (art R 723-4 Ceseda) and the appeal will be judged not collegially but by a single judge which will statue within 5 weeks instead of 5 months. This reduces time to prepare the appeal itself and the hearing before the CNDA. If it considers it necessary, the judge is competent to return the case to a collegial formation of the Court.
The decision to process an application under the accelerated procedure can only be appealed before the CNDA. There is no administrative recourse against this decision.

Asylum applications of accompanying minor children: The new law allows minor children’s applications to be examined simultaneously with their parents’. If the parents are granted a different kind of protection (Refuge Status or Subsidiary Protection) the decision granting a more protective measure will be applicable to the minor (L741-1 Ceseda).

Determination of language of the procedure: Before September 2018, the language used for the proceedings could be changed in between the administrative process in front of the OFPRA and the hearing at the CNDA. The new law requires that a single language must be chosen one the day of the registration. If the applicant does not choose any language s.he can be heard in any language of which s.he has sufficient knowledge. It is important to note that the choice of language can only be appealed before the CNDA, at the very end of the asylum procedure. The applicant can be heard in French at every stage of the procedure.

Applications for residence permit during the asylum procedure:
Residence permit application can be submitted at the latest within 2 to 3 months after the asylum registration. Past that point, no application can be submitted unless there are new circumstances, for instance for health reasons.

Appeal on decisions of Dublin transfer measures: According to Dublin regulations, EU states have 6 months to organize the transfer of the applicant to the competent EU state. At the end of this time limit, the first State becomes responsible of the asylum application. Any appeal of the transfer decision must be registered within 15 days after the notification of the decision to place the applicant under the Dublin procedure. This process postpones the 6 months limit for transfer, since a new time limit of 6 month will start on the day of the decision of appeal.

Safe country of origin: The Board of Directors of the OFPRA makes a list of countries of safe provenance. If an applicant is from a country on this list, his.her application will go by the accelerated procedure. The new art L722-1 of the Ceseda now requires to take into account discriminations on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity in order to assess a country as a “Safe Country of Origin” or not.

Authorization to work: The time limit before accessing the right to work is reduced from 9 to 6 months. This right stops if the asylum application is rejected.

Convocation “by all means” to the interview: The new law authorizes the OFPRA to convene applicants by emails or text messages. We do not have indication on confidentiality and language to be used yet. Nor do we have indication of solutions for applicants who do not have access to a computer nor a phone.

Cessation of the right to stay: The right to stay used to stop on the day of reception of the notification of the CNDA decision, the new law states that it will now stop on the day when the decision is “read in public session” which consists in a public display in the premises of the CNDA in Montreuil.
Also, this law extends the number of situations when the right to stay stops once the OFPRA reaches a decision (for instance when the applicant is from a Safe Country of Origin, when the request cannot be admitted for reconsideration etc…) This means that the appeal to the CNDA is not suspensive and appellants could be deprted before their hearing (L 743-3 Ceseda). According to the Articles L. 743-3 and L. 571-4, III of Ceseda, "the president of the administrative court or the magistrate appointed grant the request of the alien when the latter presents serious elements in merit of his asylum application, his retention on the territory during the examination of his appeal by the court ".

Appeal to the CNDA: The appeal time stay the same (1 month) but the time frame to seek for legal aid is lowered from 1 month to 15 days. Also, the application for legal aid doesn’t interrupt the deadline to appeal, the delay is only suspended. The rest of the period continues to run on the day of the legal aid decision. Also, every jurisdiction can request a video hearing. The applicant can no longer refuse.
Family Reunification: The new law extends the benefit of Family Reunification to underage brothers and sisters of a protected minor child.

Residence permit for beneficiaries of the status of stateless person or subsidiary protection: they will now benefit once the protection is attributed and from the "first admission to stay", of a four-year residence permit instead of one-year.

Switzerland - The relationship between Switzerland and the UK post Brexit.

16/5/2019

0 Comments

 
The United Kingdom is an important partner for Switzerland, economically, politically and in terms of migration. The relations between Switzerland and the UK are largely based on the bilateral agreements with the European Union, which will cease to apply to the UK after its withdrawal from the EU (possibly after a transition period). Switzerland wishes to ensure that its close relationship with the UK, based on existing mutual rights and obligations, will be maintained as far as possible after the UK leaves the EU and expanded where necessary.

To this end, Switzerland has entered into a series of new agreements with the UK in relation to trade, migration, road and air transport and insurance, which are contained in a bilateral trade agreement signed in Bern on 11 February 2019 by Federal Councillor Guy Parmelin and the British Secretary of State for International Trade, Liam Fox.

The new agreement was concluded as part of the Federal Council’s ‘Mind the Gap’ strategy and will apply even if the UK leaves Europe without a treaty. It replicates the vast majority of the trade agreements with the EU that currently govern relations between Switzerland and the United Kingdom: the 1972 Free Trade Agreement, the Agreement on Public Procurement, the Agreement on the Fight against Fraud, part of the Agreement on Mutual Recognition in Relation to Conformity Assessment and the 1999 Agreement on Agriculture. These various agreements have the effect of reducing or even eliminating trade barriers and discrimination in bilateral economic exchange.


The signed agreement will come into force as soon as the Swiss/EU agreements cease to apply to relations between Switzerland and the UK. If the Brexit transition period begins as planned on 31. October 2019, the Swiss/EU agreements will continue to apply between Switzerland and the UK during this period. In this scenario, the agreement will serve as a basis for economic and trade relations between the two parties after the end of the transition period. Should the United Kingdom leave the EU on 31 October 2019 without a deal, the agreement will come into effect on a provisional basis from 31 October 2019.
As part of its ‘Mind the Gap’ strategy, the Federal Council wishes to ensure that the existing mutual rights and obligations in its relationship with the UK will continue to apply as far as possible after the UK leaves the EU, and to expand them in certain areas.

Brazil waives visa for visitors from USA, Canada, Australia and Japan.

16/5/2019

0 Comments

 
On  18th March 2019, Decree No. 9,731 was published in the Official Gazette of the Union, which provides for a waiver of the visitor visa for nationals of USA, Canada, Australia and Japan who wish to enter Brazil.

Citizens of those countries wishing to visit Brazil will no longer need to apply or pay for a visa.

Such visa exemption will apply to those visitors arriving in Brazil for the purpose of tourism, business, transit, artistic or sporting activities or in exceptional situations by national interest, without intending to establish residence in the country.

Such visitors may stay in Brazil for a period of up to 90 days, which can be extended for another 90 days, provided they do not exceed 180 days in a period of 12 months.

The new provision was enacted as a unilateral initiative of the newly elected President, Jair Bolsonaro, to strengthen ties with countries considered strategic to boost tourism in the country, as well as increase investment in the private sector. Brazil currently receives about 6.5 million foreign visitors per year. The Brazilian government’s goal is for this number to reach 12 million per year by 2022.

The new rule will enter into force on 17th June 2019. Therefore, until then, the electronic visa will continue to be required for visitors from these four countries.
