跨国企业内部调动 Intra-Company Transfers
加拿大的国际人才流动项目中明确标注有，针对「授权高技能外国公民作为跨国企业内部人员，调动至加拿大临时工作」的相关条款。就职于加拿大境外跨国公司的外国公民，可能有资格在豁免劳动力市场影响评估的情况下获批工作许可，以便调派至加拿大境内工作。跨国企业内部调动政策，适用于所有国家。
除少数情况外，所有希望在加拿大就业的外国公民都需要获批工作许可。大多数情况下，外国公民只有在其雇主获批劳动力市场影响评估后，才能申请工作许可。国际人才流动项目中的跨国且与内部调动通道，允许外国公民在没有劳动力市场影响评估的情况下获批工作许可。
Canada’s International Mobility Program outlines provisions to enable high-skilled foreign nationals to work temporarily in Canada as intra-company transferees. If a foreign national is an employee of a multinational company in a location outside of Canada, they may be eligible to obtain an LMIA-exempt work permit to transfer to one of the company’s locations within Canada. The intra-company transferee rule applies to all countries.
With a small number of exceptions, all foreign nationals wishing to work in Canada must obtain a Canadian work permit. In most cases, in order to apply for a work permit, a foreign national must be issued a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) from a Canadian employer. The intra-company transfers stream of the International Mobility Program enables foreign nationals to obtain a work permit without an LMIA.

- Must be employed at a multinational company seeking entry to Canada to work at the company’s parent, subsidiary, branch, or affiliate.
- The enterprise in Canada must have a qualifying relationship as outlined below.
- The employee must be applying to work in Canada in a position at the executive level, senior managerial level, or in a position requiring specialized knowledge.
- Must have been employed with the company for at least 1 year (full-time) with the company within the previous 3 years.
Please note that the International Mobility Program utilizes the definitions outlined in the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) in identifying executive capacity, senior managerial capacity, and specialized knowledge as follows:
行政能力 Executive Capacity
符合行政能力定义的岗位必须符合以下部分或全部标准：
- 监管整个企业，或企业的主要事业部门，或企业某主要职能方向的管理；
- 制定整个企业，或企业的主要事业部门，或企业某主要职能方向的目标；
- 有权行使广泛的自由裁量权；且
- 只接受企业高层管理人员、董事会或股东的一般性监管或指示。
In order to meet the definition of executive capacity, a position must meet some or all of the following criteria:
- directs the management of the organization or a major component or function of the organization;
- establishes the goals and policies of the organization, component, or function;
- exercises wide latitude in discretionary decision-making; and
- receives only general supervision or direction from higher level executives, the board of directors, or stockholders of the organization.
高级管理能力 Managerial Capacity
符合管理能力定义的岗位必须符合以下部分或全部标准：
- 管理整个企业、部门、分部，某项职能或企业的某个组成部分；
- 监督管理其他具有监管职责、专业能力或管理权限的雇员；或管理企业中的某主要职能方向、企业部门或旗下分公司；
- 有权聘用及解雇其他雇员，或针对诸如晋升、休假授权等在内的人事调整给予意见。如果其他员工直接受其监管，则需在企业组织层级或所管理的事业部门中担任高级职务；且
- 有权对其他雇员被授权进行的日常工作活动行使自由裁量权。
In order to meet the definition of managerial capacity, a position must meet some or all of the following criteria:
- manages the organization, or a department, subdivision, function, or component of the organization;
- supervises and controls the work of other supervisory, professional, or managerial employees, or manages an essential function within the organization, or a department or subdivision of the organization;
- has the authority to hire and fire or recommend those, as well as other, personnel actions (such as promotion and leave authorization); if no other employee is directly supervised, functions at a senior level within the organization hierarchy or with respect to the function managed; and
- exercises discretion over the day-to-day operations of the activity or function for which the employee has the authority.
专业知识 Specialized Knowledge
符合专业知识定义的岗位，必须同时符合对专有知识和高级专长的需求。根据「北美贸易自由协定」相关规定：
- 专有知识：企业特有的与其产品或服务相关的专业知识。意味着企业并未将其专利外泄并授权其他企业仿制其产品或服务。
- 高级专长：通过在该企业供职累积重要（即工作经验越长，知识越有可能“专业”）及近期（即最近5年内）的工作经验，从而获得的，可被用于为雇主的生产力产生重大贡献的专业知识。
In order to meet the definition of specialized knowledge, a position must require both proprietary knowledge and advanced expertise. These are defined through NAFTA as the following:
- Proprietary Knowledge: “company-specific expertise related to a company’s product or services. It implies that the company has not divulged specifications that would allow other companies to duplicate the product or service.”
- Advanced Expertise: “specialized knowledge gained through significant (i.e. the longer the experience, the more likely the knowledge is indeed “specialized”) and recent (i.e. within the last 5 years) experience with the organization and used by the individual to contribute significantly to the employer’s productivity.”
对跨国企业的一般性要求 General Requirements for the Multinational Company
- 加拿大境内与境外商业体必须具备下列关系之一：母公司、子公司、分公司或附属机构。
- 加拿大境内与境外的商业体之间必须存在业务往来。意味着两者间会有规律地、持续地提供产品或服务。仅在加拿大开设一个办公地点不能满足这一要求。
满足上述要求的申请人即可提交工作许可申请，并获批豁免劳动力市场影响评估的工作许可。根据外国公民的居住国与国籍国的不同，工作许可可以通过加拿大入境口岸、相应的签证中心和/或在线提交。来自北美自由贸易协定或加拿大-欧盟全面经济贸易协定成员国的公民可以与我们联系，咨询通过跨国企业内部调动前往加拿大时拥有更多选择。
- The enterprise outside of Canada and the enterprise inside of Canada must have one of the following relationships: parent, subsidiary, branch, or affiliate.
- The two enterprises must be doing business. This means that they are regularly and continuously engaging in the provision of goods and services. The mere presence of a location in Canada will not be sufficient to meet this requirement.
If an applicant meets the above-mentioned criteria, they are eligible to submit a work permit application for an LMIA-exempt work permit. Depending on a foreign national’s country of residence and citizenship, work permit applications may be submitted at a Canadian Port of Entry (POE), at the appropriate Visa Application Centre (VAC), and/or online.
Certain countries have developed trade agreements with Canada which offer additional options for Intra-Company Transferees. Foreign nationals from countries covered by the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) or Canada-European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), may consult those programs for additional options.
