MEA Licence & Emigrant Rights

We operate as a Registered Recruiting Agent (RA) under the Emigration Act, 1983. This page explains your legal protections when you use our services — and how to verify and complain if anything falls short.

Our Registration

Green Outdoors Global Pvt Ltd holds MEA Recruiting Agent Licence B-1873/GUJ/COM/100/5/10332/2023, issued by the Protector General of Emigrants, Ministry of External Affairs, Government of India. A copy of the Registration Certificate is displayed at our office premises as required by law.

Verify us yourself: visit emigrate.gov.in → "Find Recruiting Agent" and search our licence number. Deal only with agents you can find on that list.

Service Charge — Your Legal Cap

Under Rule 25 of the Emigration Rules (as amended in 2017), a Recruiting Agent cannot collect service charges of more than ₹30,000 (plus applicable GST) from a worker, and must issue a receipt for every amount collected.

Service charges must be paid only by digital payment or bank draft — never cash. Costs such as embassy/consular visa fees, pre-employment medicals, air tickets, and pre-deployment boarding sit outside this capped service charge and are not billed to the worker as part of it; who bears them is set out in the specific employment contract, and typically that is the foreign employer.

Your Protections

Every legal deployment includes: a written employment contract signed by the foreign employer; a proper work visa (never a tourist visa for a job); Pravasi Bharatiya Bima Yojana (PBBY) insurance; and, for ECR-passport holders travelling to notified ECR countries, emigration clearance from the Protector of Emigrants via the eMigrate system.

Candidates from Nepal

Nepali citizens are recruited only through DoFE-licensed manpower agencies in Nepal, as required by Nepal's Foreign Employment Act, 2064 (2007) — including embassy-attested demand letters and individual DoFE labour approval (श्रम स्वीकृति). Green Outdoors Global provides visa consultancy and document attestation services for this corridor; it does not itself recruit Nepali citizens. Nepali workers can verify agencies and file complaints via dofe.gov.np and the Foreign Employment Tribunal.

Anti-fraud warning: pay only against an official invoice of Green Outdoors Global Pvt Ltd to the company bank account by digital payment or bank draft. Nobody representing us is authorized to collect cash, charge above the legal cap, or promise a guaranteed visa or job. Report any such demand to office@gogpl.in and to the MEA channels above. Rules and fee limits can change — always cross-check current requirements on emigrate.gov.in.
