Extension of Residence Certificate Validity for Myanmar Nationals

August 4, 2026
Myanmar nationals can now have their residence certificate validity extended to six months.
The validity of the certificate of eligibility for Myanmar nationals is extended from three to six months. This change comes due to delays in issuing overseas work identity cards caused by local reforms and a recent earthquake. Individuals need to have a valid visa obtained through specific procedures at the embassy. Please refer to official sources for details.
