The Department of Foreign Employment (DoFE) has suspended issuing work permits physically to foreign employment seekers with effect from Friday, though online work permit issuance will continue with limited quota.
Issuing a press note, the Foreign Employment Office said the the department has directed not to issue new work permits for foreign employment physically until further notice as the government has already suspended domestic and international flights. "Since the international flights have been suspended from Thursday, there will be no issuing of work permits physically.
However, the online access for renewal of the work permits will continue, the department's press note reads.
Last year, the government suspended issuing work permits on March 12 after the government imposed the lockdown across the country. It reopened only after six months.
