The grace period granted to employees after visa cancellation
I have been given a 5 day grace period post my visa cancellation.
It was cancelled on the 8th of January and the document says I need to exit by the 13th of January.
Shouldn't I be given 30 days for exit or change?
What should I do?

It is 28 days counted from the date of cancelling the work card and not from the date of cancelling the visa.
You must amend your position so that the employer does not make an escape report at the Ministry of Labor as he is legally obligated to remove you from the state.

You have 30 days after the cancellation of the visa to exit the country.
There seems to be an error. Therefore, please go back to your administration department to amend the date of exit.
