All cities, UAE

Can the company force me to leave the UAE after terminating me?

If a company I am working for cancels me without any reason, is it supposed to force me to leave the UAE?

Or do I have a right to stay and find another job since I have a clean record?

Guide me on that.

Thank you

Hi M.

First of all, the employer can not force you to resign without any reason.

If he has done so, you can file a case against him in MOHRE for arbitrary dismissal.

After your visa is canceled you get 30 days grace period which you can use for finding another job.
