Expatriate job seekers should
submit the ‘good conduct certificate’ while applying for the work permit in the
UAE from February 4 this year.
About 220,000 Nepalis are currently
working in the UAE, and there has been double digit growth in their number
every year.
According to UAE sources, the
certificate must by issued by the home country of the job seekers or the
five-year country of residence, and should be approved by the UAE embassy in
the respective country of the applicant or at the UAE Ministry of Foreign
Affairs and International Cooperation’s customer happiness centres’ attestation
facilities.
Expats seeking jobs in the UAE
will have to first obtain a certificate of good conduct to be issued a work
permit as of February 4, the UAE Coordination Committee has announced. According
to the committee, the rule, which follows the approval of a 2017 cabinet
resolution, means that the good conduct certificate must be issued by the
applicant’s home country or five-year country of residency, reported
arabianbusiness.com.
The UAE government said that the decision came
as an effort to enhance safety at work and in the community.
The rule will not be applied to
the job applicant’s dependents or tourists.
