Resigned in Dubai, but employer refuses. How can I stay and switch visas?

Q: Hello, My company brought me to Dubai on a visit visa, and after two months, they provided me with a work visa. However, they have been holding my passport. I recently submitted my resignation, but they are refusing to accept it. I am hesitant to approach MOHRE since I initially worked for two months on a visit visa. However, the visit visa was arranged and sponsored by the company, including the flight ticket. My contract includes a three-month notice period, but I do not want to return to my home country; I simply want to leave this toxic work environment. What would be the best way to handle this situation? I am currently working in Dubai under my company`s work visa. After my resignation, my visa will be canceled. I want to explore other career opportunities in Dubai. How can I extend my stay beyond 30 days? After 30 days, can I stay on a visit visa? If so, how can I apply for one? Do I need to return to my home country to obtain a visit visa and then re-enter Dubai?

Paid 10% for a Dubai freehold flat but can't proceed. Can I get a refund without signing the SPA?

Q: Hello, I purchased a freehold flat in Dubai and paid an initial 10% while signing the reservation agreement. However, due to financial issues, I am unable to proceed with the next payments. My question is: Can the developer refund my funds? The 10% payment was made to the developer’s escrow account, but I haven’t signed the SPA yet. I requested a refund from both the developer and the property agent, but they declined, stating that the money could not be refunded. Is there any way to recover my funds?

I selected an apartment and paid the first cheque but there is no Ejari. How can I get my money back?

Am I obliged to sign the visa cancellation letter before receiving my end-of-service benifits (EOSB)?

Q: I joined the company (Media City free zone) on December 4th, 2023, and resigned on February 15th, 2025. We agreed that my last working day would be April 15, 2025, as my contract specifies a two-month notice period. Yesterday, March 25, 2025, I received an email from the HR department requesting that I sign the visa cancellation letter today or before receiving my end-of-service payment and final salary. I have researched the DMCC and UAE laws and found that I should not sign any visa cancellation letter until I have received my payment. I was provided with a final settlement letter from the company yesterday. The amount mentioned is correct; however, the letter includes clauses related to the payment that I do not agree with. According to my research, and in line with UAE law, there is no legal requirement for employees to sign an internal release or waiver to receive these statutory entitlements.

How to solve a dispute between and the new landlord and tenant for the actual move-out date?

Q: Hello There was a rental dispute for a house that had an ownership transfer and there was a difference of opinion between the landlord and the tenant on the move-out date. The landlord is suing the tenant for the entire period until case resolution, however, the tenant claims to have evicted and did handover with the previous owner, however, he overstayed by a week as per DEWA. The RERA has now appointed an accounting expert who will check the following details: 1. Verify tenant occupancy or vacating date. 2. Review management records for occupancy details. 3. Check the previous owner`s records on the vacating agreement. 4. The broker who confirmed move-out has PoA. 5. Verify ownership transfer notification to tenant. 6. Check DEWA for service disconnection details. 7. Assess rent due from 09/20/2024 – 10/11/2024 and payment status to new landlord. I would like to know what the CA would do, who does it favor, and what kind of proofs are needed to be provided. What if the CA cannot verify the house vacancy?

Changed my mind before signing the lease agreement. Are my post-dated rent checks at risk?

Q: Hello, I recently found an apartment for rent and agreed with the agent to make payments in three installments. I provided the agent with post-dated checks for the second and third payments and planned to transfer the first payment, deposit, and agency fee to the agent’s account once the lease agreement was finalized. However, the lease agreement has not been finalized yet, and I have since found a better place. Since I have not signed any lease agreement, should I be concerned about the landlord cashing the checks for the second and third payments? Is it legal? Additionally, the agent requested an extra 2,000 dirhams beyond the amount he intended to include in the lease agreement.

I purchased a rented apartment in Abu Dhabi. Can I evict the tenant immediately if there is no Tawtheeq contact?

Q: I recently purchased a rented apartment in Abu Dhabi and agreed to honor the existing lease. After the transfer, I discovered that the lease is not a Tawtheeq contract, meaning it is not officially registered. Since I am not receiving rent (as it was a non-refundable arrangement with the seller), I prefer not to issue a new Tawtheeq. I also want to avoid a formal notice to vacate to prevent disputes, as I plan to move in. However, I have already informed the tenant that I will not be renewing the lease. I need legal advice on the implications of proceeding without a Tawtheeq contract. What are my risks, especially if the tenant refuses to move out? What legal actions, if any, can the tenant take in this situation?

Unpaid agency commission without a signed agreement. Can email proof hold up in court?

Q: Hi dear all, This question concerns the payment of the agency commission. The commission agreement form was not signed, but there is indirect evidence — email correspondence in which it is confirmed that the 2% amount is intended for the agent’s commission. In the end, the client refuses to pay, although the deal was completed. How realistic is it to receive the commission through a court decision? And how long would such a case typically take?

Terminated for performance issues without prior warning while on vacation. What should I do?

Q: Hello Sir, I am facing an issue with my employer. I work in the private sector in the UAE, and my employment visa expires in June 2025. After two years, I traveled to my home country for vacation, and one week after my arrival, the company sent me an email terminating my employment due to performance issues. However, I was never given any prior warning or written notice. The termination email also did not mention any notice period or other details. I would like to know my rights and what I should do in this situation.

The tenant refuses to give rental cheques to the agent or pay the renewal fee as per the contract. What to do?

Q: The tenant refuses to give rental cheques to the agent or pay the renewal fee specified in the contract. He is forcing the landlord to directly renew the agreement without any agent in between, and the landlord is uncomfortable dealing with him directly. The tenant submitted a renewal contract in RDC with an offer and deposit case with modified terms and conditions, and removed the addendum, which is an integral part of the existing contract. Parallelly, he submitted an Ejari request to the landlord for approval. The landlord rejected his offer and deposit request at the RDC portal due to non-compliance with the existing contract. Accordingly, his Ejari request was also rejected. Since then, the tenant has not approached the landlord for renewal. The landlord is willing to renew the contract without any change in the existing contract and addendum. How can the landlord secure the renewal cheques and conclude the contract? Can he ask the tenant to vacate the apartment? Please advise
