For workers going abroad, and those who went
Recruitment disputes, foreign employment claims, visas and compensation for workers abroad.
Nepali workers abroad are among the most exposed to contract substitution, unpaid wages and unrecovered recruitment fees. The Foreign Employment Act provides routes to recover against licensed agencies.
We act for departing workers checking a contract before they sign it, and for returning workers and families pursuing a claim after the fact.
What we handle
- Recruitment agency fee recovery
- Contract substitution claims
- Unpaid salary and benefit claims
- Compensation for injury or death abroad
- Foreign Employment Tribunal representation
- Pre-departure contract review
- Student and work visa documentation
Keep every receipt and every version of the contract. They are usually the whole case.
Why choose Anvi Legal for foreign employment matters
These claims turn on paperwork most workers are never given a copy of. We know which documents to demand, from whom, and how long the tribunal route realistically takes.
Frequently asked questions
My agency charged more than the legal limit. Can I recover it?
Excess recruitment fees can be claimed against a licensed agency where you can show what was paid. Receipts, bank transfers and messages all help establish this.
The job abroad was not what the contract said. What can I do?
Contract substitution is actionable. Keep the contract signed in Nepal and any later document you were asked to sign on arrival, because the difference between them is usually the claim.
A family member died while working abroad. What support exists?
Compensation and insurance claims may be available through the Foreign Employment Board and the employer. We help families assemble the documentation these claims require.
