For work visa renewals, your employer typically needs to apply for approval to hire foreign employees 1-2 months before your work visa expires. This approval takes about 12-15 days to process. Once approved, all compulsory documents, including your current work permit and a medical check-up report, are submitted to the Ministry of Labour between 5 and 45 days before expiration. A new work visa is usually issued within 3 working days after a complete submission.
