Number of Indians Migrating to Gulf Countries Drops By 21 Per Cent In 2018

Emigration clearances to the Gulf dropped by 21 per cent compared to 2017, standing at 2.95 lakh in the course of the 11-month period which ended on 30 November 2018, reports Times of India.

Compared to the peak of Indian workers’ outflow to the Gulf in 2014 at 7.76 lakh, the decline in 2018 is 62 per cent. These stats are taken from the e-Migrate emigration clearance data, that examines emigration clearance issued to workers holding ECR (emigration check required) passports.

Qatar is the only country in the Gulf region where the number of workers increased in 2018 when compared to 2017. Almost 32,500 workers were granted emigration clearances as compared to close to 25,000 in 2017, a rise of 31 per cent. A Mumbai-based labour recruiter says, “This could be because of increased labour requirement as the country prepares to host the football World Cup 2022.

Washington-based think-tank, Middle East Institute, says there are almost 6-7.50 lakh Indian migrant workers in Qatar, nearly double the number of native Qataris.

The decline, according to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), is due to several reasons like Gulf slowdown due to oil prices slumping as well as the Gulf countries filling up posts with their own nationals.

Also, a large number of Indians having ECR passports travel to Gulf countries on tourist visas and convert them to employment visas, thus entirely bypassing the e-Migrate system. These numbers thus are not shown e-migrate clearance data.

Blue-collar Indian workers whose passports have been endorsed as Emigration Check Required (ECR) will be prohibited from travelling overseas if their prospective job offers are unrecognised by the e-Migrate system.

What is new?


Indian officials will now be able to verify if the job contracts offered to blue-collar Indian workers back home are the same as the employment contract approved by the UAE Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation.

Who will benefit?

Blue-collar Indian workers who require an emigration clearance stamp in their passports and approval from Indian authorities to work in the UAE will benefit. About 45 per cent of the over two million Indians working in the UAE are from this category.

What is the benefit?


Workers will not be cheated with discrepancies in wages and other benefits or duped by fake visas or job offers.

New UAE laws protect workers
In 2018, the UAE introduced sweeping rules that guarantee workers' rights. Ministerial Decrees 764, 765 and 766 paved the way for improved labour relations by securing more stable practices governed by regulations that protect workers who are legally sponsored to enter the UAE. The rules ensure greater transparency, clarity and tighter monitoring of labour contract conditions.

The decrees created a new unified, standard labour contract that stipulates a new unified contract which, in addition to the employment offer, the terms of which cannot be altered or substituted unless approved by the ministry.
No clauses can be added to any contract unless compliant with and approved by the labour ministry.
