Dear Questioner,

With regards to cancelation, you should apply for resignation and finish your notice period in order to cancel your residency.

Feel free to contact me if you have any further questions.

When will my visa legally expire? Will it expire with my Emirates ID?

After your company cancels your residency, you have a grace period to leave the country.

Even if the date on your Emirates ID says it is still valid, once your visa is canceled, your ID is no longer considered valid.

Dear Questioner,

If you no longer want to continue your job, you can resign and cancel the visa.

If any issues arise during this situation, you can complain to MOHRE.

Dear Client,

Thanks for your question! I hope you are doing well. I will definitely assist you in this matter.

No, you cannot appeal to your employer to cancel your residence visa in the UAE.

The cancellation of the residence visa is the employer's responsibility, and it should be done through the proper channels, such as the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE) or the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA).

For any further legal assistance, you can WhatsApp us. We have an extensive team of knowledgeable and experienced lawyers to provide the legal assistance you need.

We will definitely be happy to help you.

Thanks & Regards,

ABDUL WAHIED
