This report covers trinidad cuts venezuelan work with key details and context.
The government of Trinidad and Tobago has drastically cut down work permits for Venezuelan nationals by 82%, approving only 757 in 2025 as opposed to 4,275 the previous year. The prime minister’s administration states this move is due to concerns about illegal employment, trafficking, and violence involving some immigrants. Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has criticized the decision, calling it a hostile act and accusing Trinidad of succumbing to imperial pressure. However, human rights advocates warn that the cuts could further deteriorate conditions for Venezuelans living and working in Trinidad, urging authorities to ensure humane treatment and due process for migrants. The government’s decision follows a series of legal rulings that ordered over $6 million in compensation to Venezuelans who had been wrongfully detained in the past.
