The employer must provide a letter of employment for the applicant. A doctor's certificate must confirm that the applicant is healthy. You also need to have a copy of your passport photo to attach to the application.
In addition, many work visas require a work permit.
A work permit is a separate document from a work visa. If a worker works with a visa but without a work permit, the government will consider their work illegal. Work permits are issued by the Department of Labor and Industrial Relations (DILR). Contact DLIR for more information.
Employees must apply before entering the country.
Basic requirements:
- A signed employment contract

Like the visa process, the work permit process requires the help of the employer.

They should hand over all materials to the nearest consulate. Once approved, the visa holder can enter the country and start working as a legal employee.
Additional Information
When an employee's work visa expires, he/she has the right to apply for an extension of work in the country. He may be denied this extension depending on the nature of the work.
If a work visa holder intends to stay in Papua New Guinea for an extended period, he/she can apply for permanent residence.
