What happens to Expatriates after Termination or Cancellation of their Employment Visa or Entry Permit in UAE? The Emirate of Abu Dhabi and Dubai has introduced new rules and action plans. The Ministry of Interior has recently announced that it requires Abu Dhabi residents living in the UAE on a visit, employment, residence visa or business visa to obtain an exit permit prior to departing the country. This rule comes into force from July 1st 2012 and covers all airports, land ports and sea ports; both GCC and non-GCC. This move by the Government will however not affect those who are on a visit pass or tourist visa currently in place for a period beyond a month.
As we all know any visa to any country takes a lot of effort, time and money. All those efforts and money spent in getting visa are wasted if you cancel the employment visa in UAE. I would like to introduce you some facts about cancelling your employment visa.
