Department of Labour Relations
Employees from Third Countries submit their complaint in writing to the Aliens and Immigration Unit of the Police, where the form of complaint is stamped. The complaint is then sent to the relevant District Office of the Department of Labour Relations.


The relevant District Office invites the two parties (employer-employee) to a mutual meeting where they make claims regarding the complaint. After the case is examined by the competent Labour Relations Officer/Inspector, a letter is sent to the Civil Registry and Migration Department and/or to the Department of Labour, with the conclusion of the Department regarding labour issues laid out in the contract of employment, along with a relevant recommendation for the employees’ permit of residence and employment, as well as for the employers’ permit to replace the employee.

The final decision is taken by the Acting Director of the Civil Registry and Migration Department and both parties are notified on writing.
