AED50,000 fine for employing illegals in UAE

Abu Dhabi: Employers across the UAE have been warned against employing illegal immigrants as the end of the amnesty period approaches.

The amnesty period, which was declared in December 4, ends on Monday. It is the last day for illegal immigrants to apply for amnesty.

A statement sent by the Ministry of Interior on Saturday said that 24-hour inspections will be launched to detect visa violators once the February 4 deadline lapses. A Dh50,000 fine will also be issued to those who employ persons not under their sponsorship, as well as to companies and individuals that allow their sponsored personnel to work for others.
