Dear Questioner,

Typically, the cancellation form requires your signature, so you'll need to wait until all necessary procedures are completed before you can travel without any issues.

Dear Questioner,

You might need an exit permit from your employer to leave the country during the cancellation process.

Without this permit, you could face issues at immigration upon departure.

So It's generally advisable to avoid leaving the UAE while your company is processing the cancellation of your temporary work permit.
