Hiring a new employee requires the employer to perform a number of services to complete the employment process. Services 1 centre in Dubai has created a bundled service titled Tawtheef which will enable companies to complete all services related to hiring and employment in one visit only. By applying for Tawtheef, a company can get:

• A quota for the new employee
• An initial approval/a job offer
• A work permit
• A bank guarantee for the new employee after paying permit fees
• A labor contract for the employee.

Eligibility

Tawtheef is offered to companies set up in the UAE, with an employee base of less than 50. It is offered only to companies registered with the Ministry of the Human Resources and Emiratization. This means companies registered in free zones cannot avail this service.

Required documents

To apply for Tawtheef, the employer must visit Services 1 centre and submit the following documents:

• A copy of the company trade license
• The eSignature card
• Company card number
• A copy of rent agreement
• A blue print of the company’s premises
• A copy of electricity bill.

Service completion and delivery

Employers will be able to receive the deliverables within 8-12 days. They can track their application through the MoHRE’s website. The applicant will receive a text message from MoHRE after completion of each process in the bundled service. The documents will be sent to the applicant’s email address that he provided in the application.
