If your health insurance is linked to your residency visa, it will typically be canceled automatically along with your visa.

However, there might be a grace period of a few days or weeks during which you are still covered.

Thank you for reaching out with your question regarding the cancellation of insurance after the cancellation of an Abu Dhabi visa.

Generally, once your visa is canceled, the insurance provider must be notified, and they will process the cancellation accordingly.

However, insurance policies may have specific terms and conditions that can affect the timing of the cancellation.

It’s important to review your policy and the insurance company’s requirements to determine whether the coverage ends immediately or if there’s a notice period involved.

I recommend contacting the insurance provider directly to confirm the cancellation process specific to your policy.

If you need further assistance or wish to ensure that your insurance cancellation is handled properly along with any other legal matters related to your visa, I would be happy to assist you.

Feel free to reach out to me directly via WhatsApp at [-----------] or email at [-----------] to discuss further.

Best regards,

Dear Client,

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

For Abu Dhabi visa holders, health insurance can be cancelled immediately upon visa cancellation. The Abu Dhabi Department of Health guidelines state that when a visa is cancelled, transferred, or the member leaves the country, the health insurance plan will be cancelled accordingly.

This means your employer can terminate your medical insurance as soon as your visa is cancelled. Unlike Dubai, where insurance must continue for 30 days after visa cancellation, Abu Dhabi has no mandatory continuation period.

It is standard practice for employment-linked medical insurance to end simultaneously with visa cancellation.

Be aware of this immediate termination to ensure you have alternative coverage if needed after your visa cancellation.

You can contact us via WhatsApp for further clarification or additional support. We are dedicated to providing professional, timely, and comprehensive assistance tailored to your situation.

Thank you!
