Informing the employer about an employee's marriage upon his refusal to register it

Dear sir/madam,

My husband and I got our marriage solemnized in India in front of 35 people conducted by a church priest but we did not register our marriage. It is the 2nd marriage for both of us. We have a letter from the church for the marriage.

My husband approached me from Dubai when I was in India and now I am also working in Dubai. We have been together since then until May 2022 in Dubai, whenever I called my husband to register our marriage, he refused.

Later I found out that he has an affair with a lady in India and he even stayed with her together in a hotel for 2 days when I caught them with the Police in India. I found out recently that my husband has hidden our marriage from everyone; he has informed his company that he is single.

Can I email his employer with our marriage proof, and inform them that I’m his wife, to add that to their records?

I really want to do that because marrying and living with me for 7 years and spreading false information that he is not married has affected me mentally.

I need your help to know if it is wrong to do that by law and if it is an offense. I am not providing wrong or false information.

It is better that you document the marriage and prove the marriage inside the UAE Foreign Ministry so that everything is official.

Dear Madam,

You can send an email to HR giving proof (attach church letter). If any issues occurred later, if you want to file for divorce and maintenance, please contact me via phone or email.
