Four more countries (Greece, Spain, Hungary and Portugal) lift labour market restrictions for Bulgarian and Romanian workers:
The first phase of the transitional arrangements on free movement for Bulgarian and Romanian workers ended on 31 December 2008. Until then, Bulgarian and Romanian workers were free to work in 10 Member States while 15 Member States imposed restrictions on free movement (usually requiring a work permit). EU-25 countries that wanted to continue to apply restrictions during the second phase of the transitional arrangements had to notify the Commission before 1 January 2009.
Eleven EU-25 Member States have notified the Commission of their decision to continue to apply national law on labour market access after 1 January 2009 (details in background). Four Member States (Greece, Spain, Hungary, and Portugal) that previously restricted access of Bulgarian and Romanian workers to their labour markets have decided to lift these and now apply European law on free movement of workers. This means that workers from Bulgaria and Romania can now move freely to 14 Member States to take up employment there. Denmark, which currently imposes some restrictions, has also announced that it will stop applying restrictions for Bulgarian and Romanian workers from 1 May 2009, when it will also end all restrictions for workers from the EU-8 Member States.
