Responsibility for the employee visa charges in case of resignation during probation

Sir,

I'm an employee in a company for the last 90 days. Now I have some family issues and I want to cancel my visa.

They asked me to pay the visa cost. Is this right?

Dear Questioner,

This is not right. Your employer is defying the labour law of the UAE. Do not pay.

Thanks.

Dear Sir/ Madam,

With reference to your query, kindly be advised that the action of your employer is wrong and against the provisions of UAE Labor Law.

Therefore, you can validly raise an objection and not pay the amount.

Thank you
