Common questions

Can you handle visas for our whole team?

Yes. Many companies use us as their outsourced PRO team for every new hire, renewal and cancellation.

Does the employee need to leave the UAE to change status?

Usually not. If they’re already in the UAE on a visit visa or a cancelled visa, their status can often be changed inside the country.

Why does the degree need attestation?

Some job titles are linked to a qualification level. For those, the degree must be attested before the work permit is approved.
