    Permit issued

    MOHRE

Documents required

  • Initial approval / permit application number from MOHRE

    copy

  • Establishment details (licence / MOHRE establishment card number)

    copy

Conditions, time and validity

  • The application must have received MOHRE's initial approval.
  • The establishment's licence must be valid, with no violation that suspends its file.
Processing time
MOHRE does not publish a separate time for this step; it is usually done the same day as the main permit application (staff confirm).
Validity of the result
The two-year permit fee covers the permit's two-year validity.
Where it is applied for
MOHRE business service centres (Tasheel / Tawseel), the MOHRE website and the MOHRE app (UAE PASS of the authorised signatory). In Dubai the permit is often processed with the residence visa through the Work Bundle.

Steps at the authority

  1. Check the establishment category and the amount due on the system.
  2. Pay the fees (cash, card or the establishment's e-wallet at the centre).
  3. MOHRE issues the permit and the process moves to the entry permit / contract.

Tips that save you a trip

  • Ask the employer which MOHRE category the company is in: the two-year permit fee is AED 250, 1,200 or 3,450 depending on it.
  • Pay soon after approval: an unpaid application can lapse and need re-submission (staff confirm the time limit).

Common reasons for rejection or delay

  • Establishment e-wallet balance insufficient or card payment failed.
  • Outstanding MOHRE fines on the establishment block new transactions.

Questions and answers

Why is my fee different from my friend's company?

MOHRE classifies companies into categories by compliance (WPS, Emiratisation, violations); Category 1 pays AED 250, Category 3 AED 3,450 for two years.
