Minister of Economy and Industry Erkki Keldo (Reform) said at the government’s weekly press conference that the immigration quota limit could be raised depending on the state of the economy.
He suggested the current limit could be raised from 1,303 people per year – 0.1 percent of Estonia’s permanent residents – to 2,600 people under normal circumstances. But when economic growth is over 2 percent per year it could increase to 3,900 per year.
The minister said different-sized quotas could be applied to each sector of the economy. Salary requirements should also be set by the government.
