How many days do I need to wait for company cancellation following resignation and notice?

Greetings,

As soon as the labor relationship comes to an end by the lapse of the notice period then the company must cancel your visa.

Best Regards,

Providing you with the cancellation documents should not take more than 3–4 days.

If it is delayed beyond that, you need to follow up and check the reason for the delay.

Within 15 days.

Dear Inquirer,

We are pleased to serve you and address your inquiries.

Regarding residency, you must remain in the country with a legally valid residency. Regarding termination of employment with the company, you must adhere to the notice period.

Kindly contact us via phone or email for further assistance.

According to UAE law, after submitting your resignation and completing the notice period (usually one month), the company must cancel your residence visa within 30 days from your last working day.

Delays may result in fines for the company.

Your employer will typically start the official cancellation procedures with the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratization (MOHRE) and the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA) shortly after your last working day.

This part of the process, handled by MOHRE, can often be completed relatively quickly, sometimes within 1-3 working days of the employer submitting the required documents.

The cancellation of your residence visa, handled by the GDRFA, might take a bit longer. It can typically take anywhere from 2-7 working days after the labor cancellation is approved.

If you need further clarification, you may ask us.
