Interesting article Arnie, thanks - have already added it to my growing list! In case the resident applies for sponsoring on a visit visa a father/mother/wife/husband or children, then the minimum salary he should earn is Dh3,000 plus accommodation, or a total of Dh4,000. For this category of kinshi...
hi there, sorry about the late reply, but it would see that the other members have managed to get through most of your queries. the most important one for you is. yes, on termination and cancellation of your labour card you will be banned (labour) for six months. as you have not worked out a full ye...
the new law entitles employees to transfer from one employer to another after completion of a minimum of one year of service, and a "no objection certificate" from thier current employer. you cna only transfer the visa, not have it cancelled or the 6 month labour ban will be imposed! the bit about h...
well, according to the labour law the employer would normally be responsible for the charges. but, as i said, because the cost of the transfer is so much higher than the previous method of visa processing they may (or will) ask the employee to cover the charges. what she could do is to ask them for ...
you'd need to go to a dr. here to have the prescription filled.... would suggest you ask your current dr. for a copy of your file to bring with. the place is pretty 1st world with regards to medicines and treatments - although normaly at a cost! if you bring medication in on your person they are sur...

“Resolution 9 of 1995 concerning organizing and bringing in of family members and servants by foreign manpower” (in short sponsoring) Article 2 “An expatriate who receives a monthly salary of at least Dhs. 6000 may sponsor a male or female domestic worker, provided he pays the State’s Treasury an an...
better move quickly then. most of the traders have been re-located and only a few of them are still there - as has the dm parks department which was on the opposite side of the road. they are building on the site - i think the new access road and bridge to festival city goes through there.
below the text of the relevant Labour Articles concerning sponsoring. Italicised bits are my own notes. Read Article 3 in conjunction with the others. I'm affraid I don't know about teachers sponsoring if they teach above a certain grade, I always assumed it applied to all teachers. The British Emba...
you could both find work and be sponsored individually. the sponsorship law above applies to married couples, where the wife may stay at home, while the husband works. a married woman can also be employed in her own right (and be sponsored by her employer); or may opt to stay on her husbands sponsor...

i'd like to throw a proverbial spanner in the works ... this is a copy of the reply i sent aussielot .... The original law - posted below included unmarried daughters of ANY age. I must admit I don't know if this has been changed recently, as the labour law manual is only updated yearly - although a...
1. A restraint agreement is not binding under the labour law unless it is included in the official labour contract (the 2 part, single page English Arabic one). As you have not yet joined the company and are not yet in the country it is most likely that they have only sent you an Offer of Employment...
