Hi Raina.

You need to ask your company to renew your labor card. The labor card should be renewed within a period of 50 days from the date of expiry.

If the labor card is not renewed within the given time period, then you will have to pay the fee related to the labor card and employment contract.

Since you are on your husband's visa, you should only work with a valid labor contract/card as working without a valid labor card is a violation of the labor law and you can also get into trouble.

Ask them to renew or call MOHRE to complain.
