Two Pakistani exit requirements worth knowing.

PakSoftSkills: what it is and whether it is required

Yes. Since 19 November 2025, every Pakistani worker going abroad on a work visa must complete the free PakSoftSkills training and register at softskills.oec.gov.pk before the Protector of Emigrants will stamp the passport; without it the worker cannot leave legally. We complete this registration for every candidate as part of our standard pre-departure work, so it never holds you up.

How do you test a candidate's trade before departure?

Before any skilled or semi-skilled candidate reaches your shortlist, they are tested at NAVTTC-approved centres. Welders, electricians, machine operators and other technicians are checked against recognised standards rather than their own description of their experience.

Licensed deployment — OEP 2868/RWP.

Crown Enterprises Overseas Employment is a BEOE-licensed Overseas Employment Promoter (OEP 2868/RWP), ISO 9001:2015 certified, and a member of POEPA. Licence and ISO copies are attached to the employer feasibility pack on request.

The Process

The Moldova work-permit route, explained.

Moldova's process involves two separate authorities and a strict labour-market test: a foreign worker may only be hired once the employer shows the job cannot be filled locally. The steps are:

  1. Registering the vacancy The employer registers the job in ANOFM's Electronic Vacancy Registration system, confirming it could not be filled from the local labour market.
  2. Autorizație de muncă (work permit) ANOFM, the National Employment Agency, issues a work permit tied to the employer and the role, usually for one year and renewable.
  3. Type D long-stay visa The worker applies at the Moldovan mission covering Pakistan for a Type D visa linked to the approved permit. The standard fee is around €80.
  4. BEOE Protectorate (Pakistan) At the same time, we complete the worker's BEOE Protectorate clearance, attestation and medicals in Pakistan.
  5. Temporary residence permit After arrival, the worker applies for a temporary residence permit through Moldova's General Inspectorate for Migration (IGM), which took over this role in 2026.

For employers in Moldova: ANOFM's Electronic Vacancy Registration requires an M-Sign digital signature linked to a Moldovan company. Your HR or legal team normally handles this while we work on the Pakistan side at the same time.

Why Pakistan

Pakistan compared with other source countries — a straight answer.

Employers evaluating South Asian labour sourcing usually weigh Pakistan against India and Nepal. Here's how they actually compare for the trades Crown places most:

Gulf experienceCommon — most tested candidates have worked on Saudi, UAE or Qatar sitesVariable by tradeVariable
English proficiencyCommon among trade-tested candidatesWidespreadGetting better, but less consistent
Cost competitivenessStrong — wage expectations keep project budgets workableModerate, rising with skill levelStrong for high-volume and general roles
Our licensingDirect — BEOE-licensed OEP (2868/RWP), no intermediary layer——

These are general patterns by trade; individual quality varies by role and group. Crown is licensed and active in the Pakistan corridor only — for workers from India or Nepal, use a partner based in that country.
