What to check, what to prepare and what to expect on this route. Every official name and link below comes from a government or ILO page we read; we say plainly where there is none.
Department of Foreign Employment (DoFE)
DoFE licenses foreign-employment agencies and issues the labour permit every Nepali worker needs before leaving for paid work abroad.
How to check: Confirm the agency holds a current DoFE licence, and that the labour permit names the employer, destination and agency you were promised.
Every candidate completes the same intake checklist. Your source country adds its own clearances on top. The destination side (visa type, medical, attestation) depends on the employer and your role, and your specialist confirms what currently applies.
Dirección Nacional de Migración, Ministry of the Interior
Uruguay issues no separate document called a work permit: legal residence is what allows a foreign person to work. Residence applications go through this office.
