I just have a few questions in relation to Labour Cards
1. How expensive is it it renew a labour card?
2. How expensive is it to change a profession on a labour card?
3. In order to change someone's profession do they have to have an offical qualification or would an experience certificate be allowed?
4. How would I go about changing/renewing someones labour card?
5. Are there any websites where I can get clear information in relation to visas and Labour cards?
Thank you for your help in advance

. How expensive is it it renew a labour card? It depends on the Category of your Company. If it is Cat A Company then it will be AED 1500, Cat B 2000, Cat C 3000
2. How expensive is it to change a profession on a labour card?
Only you will have to type a new Labour Contract from the typist, get the attested certificate legally translated and resubmit to MOL ..... this will cost only around AED450 approx
3. In order to change someone's profession do they have to have an offical qualification or would an experience certificate be allowed?
It needs to be a professional/official qualification. if in dubai just the copy of the attested certificate, in abu dhabi and sharjah it needs to be further legally translated into arabic
4. How would I go about changing/renewing someones labour card?
Changing profession can be done anytime on the availability of above documents. Renewal is done usually two months before expiry on the payment of the requisite fee. This your PRO can get it done from a Typing Centre on producing the copy of the labour card
5. Are there any websites where I can get clear information in relation to visas and Labour cards? labour info can be seen on emol.ae dubai immigration details on DNRD

Thank you Rekhananiauh, I appreciate your help.
Could you please help me with one other query. There is a friend of mine who works for a company as a Quantity Surveyor and they wish to change the title on their labor card to a Quantity Surveyor. They have diploma in a related field, is it possible to change his details on his labour card?
Are there certain qualifications an individual must have to have a specific title on their labour card?
Where would I get a list of titles and relevant qualifications?
Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it.

Hi,
The title on the labour card can be changed if the same profession is listed on the list of professions published by the Ministry of Labour. The book which gives details of the list of professions and codes can be bought from the Ministry of Labour.
As regards your friend, i don't recall having seen a profession in book which says "Quantity Surveyor". However the professions "Survey Engineer" and "Surveyor" is listed. If your friend has a Diploma in Survey Sciences or related subject he can get the title of Surveyor. However to get the profession as Survey Engineer it is a must that he holds a minimum Bachelors Degree.
Trust this clarifies your queries.
Thanks

Hello,
I am new, just find this forum, I have few questions, I am wondering if some one could drag me to right answer.
1. What are Category A, Category B & Category C Companies.
2. Is the list of profession issued by M/O Labor available online, if so please send the link.
3. Does the list of professions comes from Ministry of Labor / or a Company can suggest the profession for the individual.
4. My job descriptions are related to (Customer Support Engineer (IT) / IT Support) but on the labor card my profession is Mechanic. Is there any such category listed as Customer Support Engineer / IT Support by M/O Labor, So i can request to change the title.
5. What sort of obligations my Company would have in respect to amend my labor card? in case they have any.
Thanks and Regards,
