Anyone in the UAE who are on a six-month visa to find a job, have been advised a couple of things by The Federal Authority For Identity and Citizenship.<\/p>\n

According to The Khaleej Times<\/em>, the authority has issued a detailed statement on specific regulations that come with the visa and that anyone who is in violation will be fined similar to how those with residency visas get fined.<\/p>\n

So if you or someone you know is still looking for a job, keep on reading and pass this on.<\/p>\n

A couple of tidbits to know:<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • The temporary visa was approved by the UAE’s leaders so that people are allowed to legally stay in the country and seek jobs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n
    • Those who are on the temporary 6-month visa do not need a sponsor. Similarly, they are also not made an exception to exemption or extension.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
        \n
      • Avoid penalties! Once and if you have found a job, you need to transfer your residency under a sponsor or leave the country before the temp visa expires.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
          \n
        • Ensure that you’re on track with the validity of your visa for your wellbeing. Otherwise, a fine of AED100 will be imposed on the first day of violation, which then goes to AED25 every day (during the delay.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
