Operation Kurangi, launched by the government on 2 May last year, focuses on collecting biometric information of foreign workers in the Maldives. The deadline for providing this information is set for 20 April, after which individuals who fail to comply will face deportation. Additionally, their access to services under the Expat System will be suspended.
