الجدول الزمني لإصدار تأشيرة عمل في الإمارات

مرحبا،

أحد أصدقائي (هو الآن في الهند) تقدم بطلب للحصول على وظيفة في شركة إماراتية وحصل على خطاب العرض. كما قدم شهادة عرض عمل موقّعة قبل شهر، ولكنّه لم يستلم تأشيرة العمل إلى الآن.

عندما اتصلت بقسم الموارد البشرية بالشركة، أخبروني أن التأشيرة قيد الإجراءات وهي الآن في انتظار الموافقة الأمنية.

سؤالي هو ما هي الموافقة الأمنية وكم من الوقت تستغرقه؟ ومتى سيحصل على التأشيرة؟

Dear Questioner,

Your inquiry is quite common. Nobody can tell you exactly how long it will take to proceed with a new visa, because everything is happening through an online application.

First, you need to consider the fact that for some free zone authorities the process is longer than for a mainland Company.

The security approval is actually the Criminal Investigation Department approval - all new employees are checked before receiving a visa.

The approval shall take between 1 week and 2 months - depends on their procedure and the information found by them.

If we can be of any further assistance, please feel free to contact me on rg@elnaggarlegal.com

Thank you.

Best regards,

Raluca Gatina.

Good Morning,

Thanks for your reply.

I said applied for an employment visa, not a free zone. It's a construction company.

He also signed the JOC submitted one month before, but the HR department always says the visa process is under security clearance.

I want to know what's the security clearance. The UAE authorities take clearance from the Indian embassy, why another procedure?

After security clearance, how many days before we receive the employment visa?
