I think you are confusing different things.

Health insurance is paid for with the visa issuance fee i.e. for a 2 year permit, it's around 144 BD I think.聽 聽If you get private health insurance, you can use that to get a waiver on this fee.聽 聽

But SIO payment is for social insurance and not health insurance - this covers workplace accidents for expats and pension for locals.聽 That, you still have to pay.

You鈥檙e correct Xtang. Confused between the 2.

So for LMRA Health Fee, I understand that鈥檚 going to be waived off if a company has a private health insurance.

How about in SIO though? I think there鈥檚 health care fees being billed to a company once a year, beginning of the year basically. Would that be exempted as well if a company takes up private health insurance?

No only the lmra fee.
