The bill to eliminate the quota for foreign workers in Mongolia has been submitted www.gogo.mn
Members of Parliament P. Sainzorigt and N. Batsumberel presented a draft law to the Speaker of the Mongolian Parliament, D. Amarbaysgalan, which proposes the removal of restrictions on the number and percentage of foreign workers in Mongolia and the exemption of employers from job placement fees for foreign workers.
The draft law stipulates that the number and percentage of foreign workers in Mongolia will not be set until December 31, 2026, except for the mining and oil extraction sectors. During this period, employers will also be exempt from the job placement fees for foreign workers.
Between 1993 and 2006, Mongolia’s birth rate was significantly low, resulting in a shortage of domestic labor, a situation that is projected to continue until 2030. In light of this, the bill was introduced, emphasizing the need to address the labor shortage.
According to the annex to the resolution of the Mongolian Parliament in 2021 (Resolution No. 106), the “Revival of State Productivity” under the New Revival Policy includes removing limits on the number of foreign workers in the private sector, reducing job placement fees by 50%, and enabling the hiring of foreign labor to fill gaps that cannot be covered by the domestic workforce. This measure aims to address labor shortages, particularly for small, medium, and micro businesses, and halt the worsening shortage of labor in the country, as stated by MP P. Sainzorigt, as reported by the Parliament’s press service.
