Following a pause due to regional conflict concerns, Nepal has officially restarted the issuance of work permits for labor migration to Middle Eastern countries.
The government of Nepal has officially resumed the issuance of work permits for Nepali citizens seeking employment in Middle Eastern countries, after a temporary suspension caused by regional conflict uncertainties. This decision follows a period during which Nepal halted new work permits as a precaution to ensure the safety and well-being of its overseas workers. The restart aims to facilitate labor mobility and support the economic contributions made through remittances by Nepali migrant workers in the Middle East. Official sources highlight that the government remains committed to monitoring the security situation closely to protect migrant workers. This move is anticipated to positively impact the labor market and enhance foreign income streams for Nepal.
