Some South Asian nationals have had difficulty obtaining work visas for prospective employees, according to select companies in the UAE. An alert from the authorities appears when businesses that employ a disproportionate number of persons of a given nationality apply for new visas for members of that nationality, requesting that they “achieve demographic diversity while hiring.”.
However, visa specialists and representatives flatly denied popular allegations that the United Arab Emirates has ceased providing visas to Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Indiann citizens.
Upon contacting the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratization (MoHRE) in Dubai, a business service center was informed that employers must hire diverse nationalities. They must ensure that diverse nationalities receive the “first 20 percent of available quotas in the establishments.” Notably, this process is not connected to any particular country but rather to the demographic variety of the establishments.
Businesses were advised to consider recruiting a workers from a different country if they get the directive to increase diversity.
