Sorry but those jobs are reserved for Belizeans.

May have a space for you, seeing how you mentioned you are into bondage. (he he)

SIN

Wow, SIN! You've got jobs for everyone!

No joke, its illegal here for you to work any of those jobs!!!! Youd be turned in faster than a lizzard catches a fly.

Hmmmm... quite a few gringo/gringas tending bar in San Pedro.

On a work permit? After obtaining residency sure but try walking in and getting a work permit for one of those jobs.

I only know of 1 bartending on a "Bar Tender" work permit, so, it is possible.

If you own the bar you can get a permit to work it, is why you see Gringos working. Although I know a few cases that folks bought bars/restaurants and then denied permits. Or they are illegal. Old timers were able to get residencies with a wider variety of job options. Now even your residency specifies the work you are limited to do.Not sure what happens with citizenship. The problem with a cute young blonde tending bar without permits is that she may be apt to pull in more tips cause shes unique, believe me the other gals
/guys wont stand for that and she will get turned in rather quickly. Alot of folks are working here illegally, it just is not right to those who paid for their residency/work permits/ taxes etc!!!

First step...Marry a Belizian.

Your common wealth and they have a little advantage over a US citizen, but I wouldn't call that a foot in the door, maybe a little toe. Pick a profession you won't be competing with the Belizeans for.

I can hook you up!

If you start your own business i.e. a restaurant (we sorely need more good ones)-you will get a work permit almost immediately

Um SIN... there's something I want to ask you... will you um....?

A good pizzeria is in order!

Make you a life size ice sculpture or myself?

Uh... no... just need you to show up at the church and sign some paperwork... no big deal really! You've done it a few times so you know the routine! :P

I thought SIN was already married.........???

Now wait TQ. You would marry a belizean so you could work a job? There's something wrong with that plan.

SIN strikes me as a multi-tasker!!

You know this too???? Whoa!

I think polygyny is ok in Belize! Who's gonna know??? :P

Marrying a female Belizean does not give you automatic residency, citizenship or even right to work.
You still need to go through the standard application process/waiting period and of course duration in the country.
Although, if you are a female marrying a Belizean male, I believe that the process is different, as in easier.

How many wives can you legally have as a Belizean?

Being the owner of a business very often does not automaticly give you a work permit, Many boat owners dont work their boats, hard to get a guide permit. Hotel owners cant work the desk. Boutique owners cant be salespersons and on and on and on.

Polygyny? Multiple OB/GYNs?

Owning a business doesn't give you a work permit. You can supervise but not officialy work. Being said, a Self Employed work permit it a tad easier than a employer applying for you.

SIN, wikipedia is your friend! :P

Polygyny is described as when a man is either married to or involved in sexual relationships with a number of different females at one time. This is the most common form of polygamy. Polygyny is practiced in a traditional sense in many African cultures and countries even today, including South Africa and most of Southern and Central Africa.

polyandry is the Amazon way , look that up SIN,
lots of weird things you learn studying birds.

Well, now that I know, I would have to say I am a one woman kinda guy.





One woman at a time that is. I am 35 ya' know and not 17 anymore!

35??? Hell, I've got bad habits older than that!!

Now I am confused..... If I purchase or open a business I cannot work the business myself? I was in Coconuts the other day and
theo owner appeared to be working???? In another thread it was recommended that a new arrival open a business with no employees
in order to expidite thier ability to begin working.

Somebody please explain in small words & type your reply slowly so I can keep up....

Thanks

Steve you need to have required papers to work your business such as work permit or residency.

So until are able to ride out the waiting periods to get papers and be legal to work in your business, you will not be able to visibly work.

Ok, you own a business, and are here on your tourism visum. As long as your business comes with a considerable investment and provides work for Belezeans, immigration will not make a problem out of you working when you have already applied for your workpermit.

Owning a business is ok. Monitoring your investment is ok and a really good idea.

Talking an employee role in this business requires a work permit regardless of renumeration (getting paid).

Kinda like owning a limo service but not having a license to drive a limo, you need to hire a driver. You can't drive it until you have rec'd your license. You can ride shotgun though!

Hey folks!!

I have tried to contact the Belize consulate in Miami several times regarding this question. Apparently they are on tropical time as they never seem to be there...probably at the beach. I am trying to find out what my employment status would be as a doctor (Oriental Medicine) who would be self employed. From what I read here, getting a self empoyement permit might not be too difficult; esp. if my business would benefit Belize. I will try to contact the gov't. there. ITMT, any thoughts??

Ministy of Health would be a good Gov't branch to contact.
