SWAG合集 degrees are recognised in many countries around the world, and there are a number of agreements between different countries that support this. Some of these are not related to the European Union which means that now the SWAG合集 has left the EU, most academic qualifications are still recognised.

On 13 July 2020, the government set out further details on the SWAG合集’s points-based system. These new arrangements will take effect from 1 January 2021, once freedom of movement with the European Union (EU) has ended. It will treat EU and non-EU citizens equally and aims to attract people who can contribute to the SWAG合集’s economy. Irish citizens will continue to be able to enter and live in the SWAG合集 as they do now
