Dear User,

The first instance labor court fee is 5% of the claimed amount.

We suggest you file a complaint with MOHRE first against your employer and file a complaint with the Police station regarding your passport as it is a governmental property and the employer may NOT withhold it.

Regards,

KHA Advocates.

Hi Sir,

The complaint has already been filed with MOHRE but still no update from them.

Good day,

In fact, the law is not permitting your employer to hold your passport for any reason, and also he is duty-bound to cancel your visa once your employment contract has been terminated.

Moreover, you have the right to get your end-of-service benefits too. We can advise you on the way forward action to get your passport immediately.

Please feel free to contact us by phone or email.
