Q: I had been working in a company for 4 years. The salary was pending for 5 months and I have made a legal complaint against the company. After the complaint, they terminated me with immediate effect. I got another job and offer letter. After this, I have made a request for labour card cancellation. How can I cancel my visa?

Q: Hello, I filed a case against my former employers as they have terminated me without paying my end of service settlement. How can I get another company to grant me its visa? I have understood that I will have to sign the form stating all dues have been paid before they cancel the visa.

Q: Good day, After completing 1.6 yrs work I was terminated from the company (the reason is low performance as per company opinion). I was terminated without any notice period. I filed a case in Labour Department for non-payment of the end of service gratuity and all benefits. A company representative didn't come to the Labour Department after 48 hrs and is still refusing to pay the full amount. Then I filed a case in the court, then I was sent from the court to a typing center service. In typing center they typed something and told me to come back after 10 days. In the meantime, I have only 7 days left to exit the country as per my visa cancellation. How and where will I check for my overstaying in Dubai due to this case I open in the court and typing center told me to come back after 10 days? Thanks

With the introduction of the new procedures for obtaining a power of attorney (POA) remotely in the UAE, after it was mandatory to appear in person in front of the notary public as a global rule to ensure the identity and intention of the person requesting a POA, we put between your hands this brief guide for how you get it done.

The UAE has adopted a major reform in its legislative system that brought about 40 new laws and amendments to the company law, criminal law, personal status, among others. The amendments aim to develop the legislative structure in various sectors, the labor law being one of these, was the most recent. We try in this article to shed light on the changes introduced with the new labor law and their significance on both, the employer and employee.

The provisions of this Law, known as "UAE Labour Law", govern the relationship between employers and employees and other labour matters in the United Arab Emirates. There are special labour related regulations applicable in some of the free zones in the UAE.

This Decree sets the rules and conditions for the termination of fixed-term (limited) or unlimited (not term-bound) employment contract between employer and worker in the United Arab Emirates.

The provisions of this Decree-Law, known as "New UAE Labor Law", govern labour relations in the private sector of the United Arab Emirates. The New Labor Law repeals the previous UAE Labor Law (Federal Law No. (8) of 1980).
