A reader located in Dubai asked Gulf-news
regarding Passport and Visas in UAE. The Question below is directly copied from
the question of the reader:
“ Can the company I work with sponsor my
sister-in-law? Is it okay if I ask my employer to sponsor my sister-in-law and
to secure the necessary employment visa for her to work in Dubai?”
I will re-instate the question:
“Reader would like to ask if his employer
would be able to sponsor his sister in law to work in UAE with the same company
sponsorship.”
The rule in UAE states, if an employee is
working with a company and has a compensation of minimum 5,000 AED and working
at least 6 months with the company, he could sponsor his immediate family
(Parents, Wife or Husband and Children) for residence visa through Employee’s
Sponsorship. However, “Sister In-Law” is not included in this sponsorship
program granted to an employee. He can able to ask his sponsor to help his
sister in law in getting a Visit Visa under the same sponsorship unless, the
sponsor would like to hire his sister in-law too, then it is possible.
For further and more concise answer,
please go to the Department of Naturalization and Residence or you
