Dear Sir/ Madam,

Thank you for reaching out to me on this.

Please note that sending termination letter via email is valid under the UAE Labour Law. You may allow the employee to complete his notice period and proceed for cancellation of visa.

If the employee refuses to sign the physical letter, the termination via email will still hold good ground.

I trust you will find this appropriate.

You can get in touch with me on 052-9495731 or email for further assistance and clarification.

Regards,
