### Iceland temporary work permit — Route Work Conditions

The exact Act requires the permit before employment for a foreign national unless an exemption applies, and limits the permit effect to the labour-market rules stated in the Act.

### Iceland temporary work permit — Route Work Rights

The current Icelandic Right to Work Act states that a work permit confers the right to work and that a foreign national may not take a job without the required permit, subject to the Act's exemptions; ordinary visitor entry is not treated as an unrestricted work right.
