Ministry of Human Resources & Emiratisation

MOHRE Services

If your mainland company employs staff, almost every employment step goes through the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE). DocTrust manages your labour file so you stay compliant with UAE labour law.

Quick answer

MOHRE services cover the labour-related transactions for UAE mainland companies: opening the company labour file, work permits, labour contracts, quota requests, WPS registration, contract amendments, Emiratisation reporting and cancellations. Applications go through MOHRE's digital channels and Tasheel/Tawjeeh centres. DocTrust prepares and submits them for you.

MOHRE services we handle

  • Company labour file (establishment) registration
  • New work permits and electronic offer letters
  • Labour contract signing and amendments
  • Work permit renewal and cancellation

  • WPS (Wage Protection System) registration support

MOHRE classification and quotas

MOHRE classifies companies based on factors such as workforce diversity and Emiratisation, and this affects fees. Your visa quota depends on your premises and activity. We help you plan hiring around your quota and category.

MOHRE Services: common questions

Do free zone companies need MOHRE?

Generally no. Free zone employees are registered through the free zone authority's own systems. MOHRE applies to mainland companies.

Do degree certificates need attestation for a work permit?

For skilled job titles, MOHRE usually requires an attested degree. We can handle the [attestation](/attestation-services/) for you.
