A Deel report says India is the top or among the leading source of skilled migrants across major visa programmes worldwide, ranking first for US H-1B visas and second for both UK Skilled Worker visas and EU Blue Cards. Indians also dominate UAE Golden Visas and employment visas, reflecting strong global demand for Indian professionals. The report notes visa holders typically earn higher salaries than local workers, highlighting global skill shortages rather than cost-driven hiring. India is seeing rapid growth in overseas hiring, especially in Australia, the UK, and the US. Key sectors driving demand include engineering, software development, AI, and digital services, with the UAE, Singapore, UK, US, and Canada emerging as top destinations for Indian talent.
