Cancelling an employment visa inside Dubai mainland involves several steps. This process is generally initiated when an employee is leaving the company, resigning, or if the employment relationship is terminated for any reason. Here’s a detailed overview of the steps as of 2024

Resignation or Termination: Ensure that the resignation or termination is officially communicated and documented. If resigning, provide notice as required by your employment contract. If terminated by the employer, ensure that all legal and contractual obligations are met.

Settlement of Dues: Complete all financial settlements, including any pending salary, end-of-service benefits, or other compensations as per UAE labor law.

Prepare Documents:
- No Objection Certificate (NOC): Sometimes required for the cancellation process.
- Employment Visa Original: Collect the employee’s original employment visa.
- Passport: Ensure the employee’s passport is valid.
Initiate Visa Cancellation:
- Labor Card/Work Permit: The company must cancel the labor card (also known as a work permit) through the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE).
- GDRFA Application: Submit all required documents, including the cancellation application form, passport copies, and any supporting documents, to the GDRFA.
- Processing Time: The processing time for visa cancellation usually takes a few days.

Completion

Receive Cancellation Confirmation: Once the visa is canceled, you will receive confirmation from the GDRFA.
Documentation: Ensure all related documentation, including the canceled visa and any other relevant papers, are kept for records.

Additional Tips:

Follow Up: Regularly follow up on the status of the cancellation to ensure all procedures are completed timely.
Legal Compliance: Ensure all processes comply with UAE labor laws and immigration regulations to avoid any legal issues.
Consult a PRO: For complex cases or if you need assistance, consult a Public Relations Officer (PRO) or an immigration specialist familiar with Dubai’s procedures.
