Professional MOHRE-approved labour contract issuance for new employees, ensuring compliance, accuracy, and hassle-free processing across the UAE.
What Is Labour Contract Issuance in the UAE?
Labour contract issuance in the UAE is an official process carried out through the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE) to legally establish the employment relationship between an employer and an employee. This includes both issuing a new labour contract when hiring a worker and renewing existing contracts before they expire, in full compliance with UAE labour laws and regulatory requirements.
Every employment contract must be approved and recorded in MOHRE’s system, signed by both the employer and employee, and aligned with approved work permits and legal conditions. Issued contracts confirm key details such as job title, salary, contract duration, and employment terms — providing legal protection for both parties.
At Dar Alnukhba Customer Care Center, we assist employers in preparing accurate contracts, ensuring all documents meet MOHRE regulations, and submitting requests through authorised channels for quick approval. Whether you are hiring new staff or renewing an existing contract, our experts handle the entire process professionally, helping you stay compliant and avoid delays or penalties.

Under UAE Labour Law Executive Regulations, an employment contract must be submitted to MOHRE within 14 days of the work permit issuance. The work permit itself must be finalised within 60 days of the employee’s entry into the UAE or change of residency status. Timely submission is essential to maintain legal employment status and avoid penalties.

At Dar Alnukhba Customer Care Center, we help prevent such issues by ensuring timely submission, accurate documentation, and full compliance with MOHRE requirements.
