Economic ministry is all set to resume suspended services under its Expat System on Sunday. With this, the quota fee to be paid by employers for the expatriates who are brought to work in the country can also be paid through the system.
Some of the services provided by the system were suspended on February 26 to implement changes related to the migrant quota through the Expat System.
The economic ministry said in a statement on Thursday that the Expat System will once again be fully operation from Sunday.
The ministry said that when the system resumes, the quota fee of migrant workers brought to work will be paid through the system.
