These don't apply to a typical short visit, but cover other reasons people travel to Syria. Eligibility varies by visa type — some are limited to specific nationalities, so check each one's conditions.

Work Permit (Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor Authorization)

Foreign nationals taking up paid employment in Syria. A residence permit by itself does not authorize work; a separate work permit is required.

Domestic work authorization rather than a consular visa. The official Ministry of Tourism entry-visa page states that granted residence permission is not a license to work and that those who wish to engage in employment in the Syrian Arab Republic must obtain permission from the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor. The work permit is employer-sponsored (the employer applies on the foreign worker's behalf) and must be held alongside a residence permit. Foreign hiring is legally restricted (permitted only where no suitably qualified Syrian is available; historically capped near 10% of an employer's workforce) under a Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor resolution. The transitional government publishes no standalone online work-visa application, and the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor has no English-language work-permit page, so official_url points to the government entry-visa page that sets out the work-permission requirement.
