Q: Dear Sir/Madam, My company license expired three days ago, and I need to cancel my free zone visa. How can I cancel my visa now?

Q: Hi, I was working in a private clinic and I submitted my resignation through email and even informed the owner on WhatsApp and worked till the end of my notice period. I have asked my company to cancel my visa since the beginning of my last working week and have sent them repeated calls and even emailed them to cancel my visa. I told them that I will be leaving Dubai on 22/10/2020 so they should cancel my visa before that but they did not cancel my visa and they kept on delaying it. Now, I've left UAE and I still want to cancel my visa so the owner asked me to pay for visa cancellation on WhatsApp, my friend did and they have cancelled my labour contract however my visa is still not cancelled at GDRFA. I have repeatedly sent them messages on WhatsApp, phone calls and email asking them to cancel my visa before I leave UAE on 22/10/2020 but they ignored and did not cancel my visa. My question is what should I do as the next step and how can I cancel my visa as I'm outside the UAE? Please guide me!

Q: The court issued a preliminary judgment to involve the expert in the reports. However, based on preliminary judgment documents I submitted my request for labor to cancel my labor card from the company. After the process, the legal advisor from labor said, the court judgment is not final so the company has the right to refuse the cancellation, therefore, they dropped the cancellation request. Please advise if what the labor did is correct. And how can I cancel my visa to let another company proceed with the visa?

Q: Dear Lawyers, I am a free zone employee who resigned from the company. The company went bust and cannot cancel my visa. I raised a dispute with the Free Zone Authority, which was then transferred to MOHRE, and now I have to approach Al Adheed. I need to cancel my visa so that I can get hired elsewhere. The Free Zone Authority advised me to submit a court letter. Is this the NOC they are requesting? My priority is not receiving my dues but rather getting my visa canceled.

The provisions of this Decree-Law, known as "New UAE Labor Law", govern labour relations in the private sector of the United Arab Emirates. The New Labor Law repeals the previous UAE Labor Law (Federal Law No. (8) of 1980).

The provisions of this Law, known as "UAE Labour Law", govern the relationship between employers and employees and other labour matters in the United Arab Emirates. There are special labour related regulations applicable in some of the free zones in the UAE.

This Decree sets the rules and conditions for the termination of fixed-term (limited) or unlimited (not term-bound) employment contract between employer and worker in the United Arab Emirates.

By this Decree Ministry of Labour of the UAE has removed the six-month labour ban for those who changed the job before completing two years of service. Labour ban will be still applicable for workers that qualify for skill level 4 and 5 under various circumstances.
