هل يجوز قانونًا لشركة التوظيف أن تطلب من الموظف تكاليف التأشيرة؟

سيدي،

لقد تلقيت خطاب تعيين بعقد من شركة ذات مسؤولية محدودة في أبو ظبي، وتم توجيهي "بالتواصل مع محامي الهجرة المسؤول عن معالجة جميع المستندات/التصاريح للمرشحين المختارين (وكالة سفر) وتحمل جميع النفقات الخاصة بمعالجة وشراء واستلام أوراق تخليص التصاريح اللازمة الخاصة بهم من وزارة الداخلية".

سؤالي هو: هل يجب أن أدفع مقابل معالجة المستندات؟ وهل خطاب التعيين هو العقد؟

من فضلك، ردك الفوري سيكون موضع تقدير كبير.

Recruitment costs are on the company and not the employee. Make sure of the job offer.

You can use the job offer number to verify the validity of the application through the website of the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (Inquiry Services – Application Status).

After you sign the job offer, your employer will send you an electronic entry permit for the purpose of work so that you can enter the country.

No. The company needs to do it not you.

Dear User,

Please be informed that it is illegal for an employer to make the employee bear the recruitment costs and if they do so, then it is a scam offer and they are trying to take your money.

Furthermore, do not use the travel agency that they have told you to go to as they are probably working together to scam individuals.

Please do not give them any documents or any money. A real job offer will cover your recruitment costs and visa costs.

Regards.
