Before you accept any offer, you should Verify UAE Job Offer details with official UAE government services. Fake UAE job offers are among the most common recruitment frauds targeting job seekers from Kerala. The UAE Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE) lets anyone check whether a job offer has actually been registered, using the transaction number and company number printed on the offer letter.
This guide shows step by step how to Verify UAE Job Offer letters on MOHRE, check the company licence, confirm your entry permit and spot red flags.
What a Genuine UAE Job Offer Contains
According to MOHRE, a valid offer letter should include:
- Type of contract
- Salary (basic and total)
- Weekly leave
- Notice period
- Start date
- Job title
- Company number
- Transaction number
If the offer letter is missing these details, ask the employer for a proper MOHRE-format offer letter.
How to Verify UAE Job Offer on MOHRE
This part of our Verify UAE Job Offer guide explains the details step by step.
- Visit the official MOHRE website mohre.gov.ae.
- Go to Services → Enquiry Services → Enquiry for Job Offer (menu names may change slightly).
- Enter the transaction number and company number from your offer letter.
- Enter the date range and select the permit type (“All Work Permits”).
- Submit and check that your name, job title and salary match the offer letter.
If the offer does not appear in the MOHRE system, treat it as suspicious and ask the employer to explain. The MOHRE mobile app also offers enquiry services.

Keep these points about the Verify UAE Job Offer in mind before you take the next step.

- Check your entry permit on the official ICP portal (icp.gov.ae) or GDRFA Dubai (gdrfad.gov.ae) depending on the emirate.
- Make sure the permit is an employment permit, not a visit or tourist visa.
- Read our guide on work visa vs visit visa.
Who Pays Recruitment and Visa Costs?
Many readers ask us how to use this Verify UAE Job Offer information in real life, so the steps below are kept simple.
Under UAE labour law, the employer is responsible for recruitment fees and the costs of bringing a worker to the UAE. Employers are not allowed to collect these fees from workers. If an agent asks you for large amounts to “process” a UAE work visa, it is a red flag. In India, MEA-registered agents can only charge up to ₹30,000 plus GST as a service charge.
