I was in urgent need of the establishment card. Miss. Umara answered and helped me immediately in less than a minute. She is kind, fast, and wonderful, and I see her as the perfect example of the best customer service.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I renew the work permit?
Renew before the expiry date. There is a 60-day grace period after expiry, but late renewal penalties apply. Start the process at least 30 days before expiry.
What is the renewal fee?
The MOHRE labour renewal submission fee is AED 1,285 for Category 2 and AED 3,550 for Category 3. These figures cover the submission step only — additional admin or processing components (typing, officer letter, medical, insurance) may apply or be bundled into Amer MBS service pricing depending on the case. Ask on WhatsApp for a total quote for your situation.
Can I renew if the permit has already expired?
Yes, within the grace period. After 60 days, penalties accrue. Contact us immediately if your permit has expired.
