Help- Company holding my passport
Hi Girls,
So I started working for a Hotel in Dubai 4 months ago. On my first day they requested I hand over my passport for visa purposes (fair enough). When my visa was fully processed I asked for it back & the hotel said they keep all employee passports- being new in the country I didn't object.
So this week I asked for my passport back as I am flying back to Ireland for a holiday next week. They said no problem but I must give them a AED 3000 deposit & they will keep the 3000 until I return my passport.
I have now come to know that them holding my passport is illegal & they cannot ask me for money for it.
The Hotel has agreed to return my passport permanently but only if i give them AED 3000 & they will keep it until my contact is up ( I have a 2 year contract)
Do anyone know if this is illegal ??
