Foreign Employee Work Permit Assistance Pakistan

Overview of Foreign Work Permits

Javid Law Associates provides comprehensive support for securing work permits for foreign nationals intending to work in Pakistan. Navigating the Board of Investment (BOI) guidelines and the Ministry of Interior requirements is complex. We simplify this process for multinational corporations and foreign investors, ensuring all regulatory hurdles are cleared seamlessly.

Regulatory Framework and Authorities

The issuance of work permits is primarily governed by the Board of Investment (BOI) in coordination with the Ministry of Interior. Entities must be properly registered with the SECP to sponsor foreign employees. Compliance with tax laws via FBR and maintaining valid corporate status is mandatory.
