I'm self-employed, a business owner or not working
You don't need an NOC. Business owners provide a trade licence; if someone else pays, they provide a sponsorship letter.
The salary certificate or NOC is only for employees. Instead:
- Self-employed or business owner: your trade licence and company bank statements.
- Someone else pays for the trip, such as a spouse or parent: a sponsorship letter with the sponsor's passport, residence visa and bank statements.
Answer the employment questions when you finish your application and we'll tell you exactly which documents to upload.
