Visa status after failing to return to the UAE from an emergency leave

Dear Madam,

I have a UAE employment visa. Before 8 months, I came back to India because of some health issues and I couldn't return to the UAE.

Now, I got one offer in Dubai, will I have any issues? How to cancel my old visa on the passport?

Dear Questioner,

Please note that you must cancel your visa before applying to any sort of a UAE visa.

Please contact your previous employer to cancel the existing expired visa, so that you can enter the UAE on a new visa.

If you apply for a new visa without cancelling the expired visa, the same will be rejected.

Always remember that it is mandatory to cancel the visa even if the same is expired.

Hope the above explanation gives you proper clarification.

Thank you.
