Canceling an employee's visa while being in home country because of COVID-19

Dear questioner,

They cannot cancel your visa if they did not provide you with the termination notice.

Make sure you have all those communications with your employer, in writing, so we can use them in case, for example, with bad faith, he will file an absconding case against you, in order to cancel your visa without your acknowledgment.

Best Regards,

Dear client,

Thanks for your query!

As per law, they can not terminate you.

Thanks!

Do not worry!

Because, according to the ministerial decision issued by the Ministry of Labor, the employer can grant the worker leave with or without pay.

In addition, the employer asked you to leave for 5 months outside the country and the visa expires more than 6 months outside the country.

So do not worry!

You can contact us via email.

Dear questioner,

Based on the new federal regulations, the employer is not able legally to cancel your visa when you are outside the UAE.

Please feel free to contact me via phone or email.

Thanks!
