A certified copy of the relevant work visa, work authorization or permanent residence certificate;
Proof of the capacity / position in which the foreign national is or was employed;

As an employer, you will further be required to keep these records for two (2) years after termination of the foreign national's employment with the company.
Lastly, it is your duty to report to the Director-General of Home Affairs when the foreign national is no longer employed at the company and if he or she breached the conditions of the visa.
