Hiring A Foreign National - Do we need any permission from the labour Department?

Tandeep Mehta
We have hired a foreign national for a private limited company for the first time. He has been informed about his selection. An official email has been sent confirming his selection. He is on a student visa, which will be converted into a work permit in the next 2 months.

My question is: What precautions should we take before he joins us? Do we need any permission from the labor department?
