Dear R.,

The employment visa cannot be canceled without the employee's signature.

No action can be taken against a person during his vacation.

Dear R.,

No way you can do that. If you did, your company will be harmed and it will be considered an arbitrary dismissal.

Should you have any further inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us by email.

Thanks,

Actually, it will definitely be the sponsor who will cancel it not me.

And also just so you know, this person is not just anybody to me, I am talking about my daughter Sir.

Respectfully, I advised as per the inquiry.

However, the sponsor can’t do that with her as well.

Dear User,

Assuming you are referring to canceling an employee's visa while they are on annual leave/vacation?

If yes, it is against the UAE Labor Law to terminate an employee during their annual leave.

An employer may only cancel the visa and work permit of the employee upon termination of the employment contract.

Further, the employee must sign the cancellation papers.

Kindly specify if this was what you were referring to and if not, please be more specific.

Regards,

KHA Advocates
