Recruiters to obtain NOC for housemaids from Indian embassy

No Objection Certificates (NOC) to hire domestic workers such as maids and nannies from India are being asked for by the Indian embassy.

“The Indian embassy aims at ensuring safe migration and recruitment practices. So, we have made a request to the immigration department in Oman to ask recruiters to obtain a no-objection certificate from the Indian embassy while hiring an Indian housemaid,” Indra Mani Pandey, the Indian ambassador to Oman told.

“Currently, an e-Migrate system is online for recruiting people abroad. Recruiters have to apply online to hire any Indian. As the online system is monitored by government agencies, safe migration and recruitment can be ensured. The Indian government stands for safe migration,” the Indian ambassador added.

Sunil Kumar K, an Indian businessman, who approached the immigration department to obtain a visa, was told to get an NOC from the Indian embassy.
