Nepalis who have reached the United Arab Emirates (UAE) through visit visas are under pressure to return. After the UAE did not even issue labor visas for Nepalis, the Nepalis who came to the UAE in search of employment were pressured to return.

After the violent demonstration on August 24 and the escape of Nepalese from prison, the UAE has stopped issuing visit and work visas for Nepalis. Nepalese who are looking for work in the UAE are under pressure to return because they are not sure when they will open their visa easily.

According to Dinabandhu Subedi, then Labor Counselor for the UAE, the UAE's labor market is attractive for those skilled in language and skills. Most of the demands of manpower companies in Nepal are for unskilled and semi-skilled workers. Targeting skilled, highly skilled and professional posts will reduce the demand . Manpower seeking that level of work is going directly to the UAE labor market. "Some companies have a practice of conducting direct interviews," he said, "but there is also a wrong practice of luring some unskilled and semi-skilled workers." They are being cheated in that.' According to the Immigration Department, 12,797 people have reached the UAE from July to September 25. In which there are 4 thousand 420 women . 'It is not that they all went to search for employment . However, most of them went with visas issued for a period of 90 days . Those who have taken a visa for 90 days . They have gone in search of employment," an immigration official told Ekantipur, "Those who go for sightseeing only go with a one-month visa. Those who go to look for work are found to have taken a three-month visa.'

There is a rule in the UAE that can be changed from a visit visa to an employment visa. Now employment visas for Nepalis have been stopped, so those who are on visit visas have to return. UAE has not yet officially informed the Embassy that it has stopped visas for Nepalis. He has not issued a public notice. Earlier, the UAE did not issue a public notice even when visas were suspended for citizens of Bangladesh and Pakistan. The UAE has stopped issuing visas to Bangladesh from December 2020 and Pakistan from mid-2024. which has been maintained till now .

An official of the Nepali Embassy in Abu Dhabi said, "We have an unofficial information that visas have been stopped for Nepal". It doesn't last long. It is not possible to say with certainty when it will be opened easily.

Thakur Dhungana, chief executive director of Greenlai Travel and Tourism LLC in the UAE, says that it would be appropriate to leave the UAE before the visa expires. This travel has the legal right to apply for a visa. "UAE is not accepting all types of visa applications from Nepali passport holders," he said, "We suggest returning to Nepal before the visa expires." So that you don't have to face the legal trap tomorrow.'

If you overstay in the UAE after the expiry of your visit visa, you will be fined daily and you will have to go to jail. In case of overstay, it will increase at the rate of 50 dirhams every day. If you are caught by the police, you may be deported and banned from coming back to the UAE.    

The Nepali Embassy has issued a notification asking the Nepalis in the UAE to fully follow the rules, laws, values ​​and discipline there.
