Q: I have visa ban in the UAE due to TB during my medical fitness test. So, I Left the UAE one year before and now after treatment, I'm ok with the problem but I'm having TB scars. Is it possible to lift my ban and apply for a new visa? If possible, please guide me.

Q: Dear Mr ElKhatib, I am an assistant professor working currently in the United Kingdom. I suffered pulmonary TB 15 years ago (2003) and received all necessary medications. I have some scars in my right lung; however, I worked before in the USA, Germany, Japan, and other countries. Now, I have an offer from a university in Abu Dhabi but still worry about accepting it because I will resign from my job in the UK. Do these scars make me unfit? Is there any solution for this problem? Many thanks

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).
