Dear Sir,

There is no policy change in the issuance of visa by the Maldives Immigration. Maldivian Embassies abroad do not issue any category of visa to enter the Maldives. As such we are not involved in the processing of visa at any stage. Hence, we are not able to provide you with a specific response to your case.

Best Regards
Embassy of the Republic of Maldives

Dear Sir/ Madam

This is xxxx, Civil Engineer from Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.

As I was worked in Maldives for past 1,5 years. Recently in February came back here for the vacation.  And Decided to change the employed in Maldives itself. So I was recruited by an another construction company. Then after the Interview selection. 

They informed me, that they are unable to process Indians visa in the category Civil Engineers for Work permits further. So it affected my Visa to be processed. It is been going through from February and March 2018.

So I raise this as an request to resolve the issues for the visa. ASAP.

This affects our whole career and brings down our family situation.


Kindly find the attached Screenshot from my Employer.

Accept for the Above.


Thank You In Advance.
Regards

amitnaik20188

Sanjiv Kumar Thakur

Hai Amit any updates on work visas

Regards
Sanjiv

stumpy

The information that I got off Google.

The Maldive immigration dept states that they are not denying visas for Indians but only issuing them for white collar workers. So only being issued for professionals, not manual workers.

Sanjiv Kumar Thakur

But can anyone tell us on ground facts has anybody from India has got work visa in last 02 months...
