Avoiding a labour ban upon termination in probation period

I have just received a termination letter from my employer after 4 months from the day my visa was issued.

The reason for termination is not meeting my sales volume target at the position of a sales executive.

I have signed the termination notice, effective after one month.

Will I get a labour ban in this situation?

The labour ban is cancelled by the law. Don't worry, you didn't get a labour ban.

The Labour law was changed by the UAE government in January 2015 giving more flexibility for employees to move around without being penalized by their employer.

As you have been working on your 6 months' probation period, your employer is entitled by law to terminate your employment with or without giving you a reason. There are no bans.
