Workers from Nepal for jobs in Ukraine.
Recruitment and relocation

Nepalese workers have spent decades on contracts in Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Malaysia and South Korea, so they know shift work, strict health and safety regimes and life away from home. Employers consistently point to three things: very low turnover, a calm approach to physical work and loyalty to the company. This is a destination for plants that want a stable, long-term team rather than seasonal cover.

1) Needs analysis, quote and contract with the employer, 2) pre-selection in Kathmandu – verification of experience, references and CTEVT/NSTB certificates, 3) interviews and client approval of the shortlist, 4) sworn translations, medical checks and travel document preparation, 5) flights, airport transfer and accommodation, 6) arrival, registration and onboarding at the plant with a dedicated coordinator.

Realistically 1–3 months from signing the contract to the first day of work. The longest stages are sourcing and pre-selection, verification of qualifications and references, and sworn translations and travel document preparation. With larger groups the stages overlap, so subsequent batches arrive faster.

We work with a trusted local partner network that manages the practical side of travel document preparation for candidates from Nepal, including transport, accommodation and a complete document set. We plan this stage in advance, together with sworn translations and medical checks – this is where inexperienced agencies most often lose weeks.

English is the language of instruction in a large share of Nepalese schools and on technical programmes, and candidates with Gulf experience use it on construction sites and production floors. The level varies – we always verify it during the interview and describe it in the candidate profile. Nepalese workers also pick up basic Ukrainian quickly.

Each candidate needs a signed employment contract, a demand letter from the employer, sworn translations of diplomas and certificates, and a completed medical check. We prepare and verify this full document set together with our partner in Kathmandu before travel is booked.

The basis is the CTEVT system (Council for Technical Education and Vocational Training) and NSTB skill tests with levels 1–4 – for welders, electricians, masons, fitters and mechanics. On top of that come certificates and references from contracts in Qatar, the UAE and Malaysia. We verify qualifications by documentation before presenting a candidate; practical tests are a paid add-on, arranged in Kathmandu at the employer's request.

The budget consists of the agency fee, sworn translations, medical checks and insurance, the flight ticket, airport transfer, accommodation and onboarding. We present a precise calculation for a specific position and headcount in the offer before we start – with no hidden items.

Yes. Pay and other employment conditions match what is agreed in the contract and are transparent from the first quote

Manufacturing and processing, warehousing and logistics, construction and finishing works, hospitality and catering, and machine operation. These are sectors where regularity, shift work and readiness for a long contract matter – and that is exactly where this destination stands out.

Accommodation provided by the employer or the agency is the standard. We arrange tickets, airport transfer, housing that meets sanitary requirements, registration, a and a bank account. We also suggest simple cultural solutions: access to a private kitchen, accounting for the Dashain festival in the holiday schedule and appointing a foreman-interpreter in larger groups.

Within the agreed trial period we provide a free replacement. Throughout the contract, one coordinator supports the company and the team, addressing problems before they turn into turnover.
