Partnership for recruitment agencies in Dubai and the UAE

Many workers in the UAE are ready for their next step in Europe. If your agency in Dubai or elsewhere in the UAE places experienced workers from India, Nepal, Bangladesh, the Philippines or other countries, we offer verified job orders from Serbian employers.

  • Job orders backed by employer demand letters
  • Salary, conditions and job description for every position
  • Serbian permits and visa coordination handled by us

What you get as a partner agency

We are looking for licensed agencies that place workers responsibly and want long-term cooperation.

Verified job orders

Every job order is backed by a demand letter from a real Serbian employer. No speculative requests and no collecting CVs for jobs that do not exist.

Salary and conditions up front

Each position states the number of workers, salary, working hours, accommodation and a full job description, so you can brief candidates honestly.

Clear job content

Job orders state what the work involves, for example handling pork, beef or alcohol, night shifts or heavy lifting, so candidates decide with full information.

Serbian side handled by us

We prepare employer documents, file the single permit for residence and work and coordinate the type D visa. You focus on candidates and the outbound procedure.

Lawful agency employment

As a temporary employment agency we employ workers under the Serbian Agency Employment Act, with equal treatment to comparable employees of the user company.

Direct line to the CEO

You work directly with Aleksandar Jovanović, CEO, not with a call centre.

Outbound procedure: Dubai / UAE

Workers currently in the UAE remain subject to the emigration rules of their home country. For example, Indian nationals do not need emigration clearance for Serbia, because Serbia is not an ECR country. For Nepali and Filipino nationals we check the home-country requirements case by case.

UAE residents can generally apply for the type D visa at the Embassy of Serbia in Abu Dhabi. We confirm the current practice for each group. After arrival, workers receive a single permit for residence and work.

Working in Serbia: what your candidates should know

Single permit. Since 1 February 2024, foreign workers in Serbia receive a single permit for residence and work, issued by the Ministry of Interior. The application is filed online, by the worker or by the employer on the worker's behalf, and the legal deadline for a decision is 15 days from a complete application. The permit can be issued for up to three years and renewed.

Visa first. Nationals who need a visa for Serbia first obtain a type D visa for employment. The application can be filed online or at a Serbian embassy, and the employer can file it with a power of attorney.

Labour market test. The National Employment Service carries out a labour market test as part of the single permit application. Since 1 March 2025 it is no longer required for the type D visa itself.

Worker protection. Under the Agency Employment Act, a temporary employment agency may not charge the worker any fee, and an assigned worker is entitled to the same working conditions as a comparable employee of the user company.

Rules change. We check the current procedure for every job order and share it with you before candidates are submitted.

How the cooperation works

From cooperation agreement to workers on site, in five steps.

1

Cooperation agreement

We verify your licence and company details and sign a cooperation agreement that sets out responsibilities, timelines and candidate standards.

2

Verified job orders

You receive job orders backed by a demand letter from a Serbian employer: number of workers, salary, working conditions, accommodation, job description, required qualifications, experience and preferred source country.

3

Candidate submission

You submit candidates with CV, passport copy, qualifications, diplomas and certified translations. We pre-screen and present them to the employer.

4

Selection and documents

The employer interviews and selects candidates. We obtain the single permit for residence and work in Serbia, while you complete the outbound procedure in your country.

5

Visa, travel and aftercare

Workers apply for the type D visa and travel to Serbia. As the employing agency, we support them throughout the assignment and keep you informed.
