The right time to resign for joining another job after receiving a job offer

Dear Sir/Madam,

I work for a huge MNC in India and have received a job offer from a Dubai-based company.

I need to know at what point in the process I should resign from my current company in India.

Should I resign after receiving the offer letter, after signing the contract, or after procuring the work permit?

Please advise!

Dear questioner,

After confirming the job offer and signing the contract.

You can use the job offer number to verify the validity of the application through the website of the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (Inquiry Services – Application Status).

After you sign the job offer, your employer will send you an electronic entry permit for the purpose of work so that you can enter the country.
