Step 3: Application Processing

The MOL will review the application. It may be rejected if the form is incomplete or the new employer is ineligible to hire new workers. You can track your application status on the MOL website using your QID and EC number.

Step 4: Notification via SMS

The MOL will send SMS notifications to you, your current employer, and your new employer, detailing the notice period:

• One Month: If you’ve been with your employer for two years or less.
• Two Months: If you’ve been with your employer for more than two years.

During this period, continue working unless a shorter period is mutually agreed upon.

Step 5: New Employer Initiates Electronic Contract

After the notice period, the new employer will prepare a multilingual employment contract through MOL’s Digital Authentication System, to be signed by both parties and uploaded for authentication. This must be done within three months of the end of the notice period.
