Demand letters and document attestation

We draft and review demand letters with employers before attestation β€” far cheaper than correcting one afterwards β€” and we manage the attestation order a Pakistani recruitment file needs. The demand letter, power of attorney and employment contract are attested by your Chamber of Commerce first, then by the Pakistan Embassy or your foreign ministry: all three together, once.

What We Check

What we check before you attest

A demand letter is the yardstick a government officer will hold every candidate against, months after you wrote it.

One occupation per line. Each line names a single, testable occupation β€” “building electrician”, not “technician” β€” with its own headcount.

Wages in figures. Basic salary and every allowance in figures, or stated as provided in kind. “As per company policy” is the most common cause of an avoidable query.

Term and costs. Contract duration, probation, renewal, leave and air passage, and a plain statement of who pays for visa, passage, medical, insurance and accommodation.

Power of attorney. Issued with the demand letter and naming the promoter exactly, because the Protector of Emigrants must be satisfied about it before granting permission.

Why It Matters

Why the drafting matters

Under Rule 19 of the Emigration Rules 1979, the Protector of Emigrants scrutinises your demand and grants permission only when satisfied about the power of attorney and the reasonableness of the wages and terms. Under Rule 21(1), each worker is later checked against the qualifications in your demand before their agreement is registered.

Anything left vague cannot be verified, and the file stops at that desk β€” after attestation has already been paid for. Workers’ own certificates are attested in parallel; technical certificates go through the provincial technical board and NAVTTC.

FAQ

Attestation questions

Does the demand letter have to be on company letterhead?
Yes. It is attested as a corporate instrument, so it must carry your registered identity, company stamp and an authorised signature.

Can one demand letter cover several trades?
Yes, and most do. List each occupation on its own line with its own headcount, wage and requirement.

What if the requirement changes after attestation?
Tell us before selection begins. A material change β€” a different occupation or wage β€” generally needs a fresh demand letter through the same attestation chain.
