Before you apply — Pakistan checklist:

- Before you travel for any Gulf job, your passport must carry the Protector of Emigrants stamp — never travel for work without it.
- Never pay a fee to Gulf Salary Hub — we are a guide, not an agent. We charge nothing, ever, and we cannot arrange jobs or visas.
- Keep copies of your passport, CNIC, contract and every receipt — photos on your phone, plus a printed set left with family at home.
