I do have the same problem..im an undergraduate student(expatriate) holding a student visa at one of the university in dubai..I got a job offer for three months (part time)..when i consulted the persons at immigration they said you cannot work but at ministry of labour they said you have to issue a mission visa in which your sponsor will be replaced by the current sponsor and your company have to keep Dhs 25000 (yes, twenty five thousand) as deposit money..Was it correct or is there any other way to get a temporary work permit |
