Visa Ban in UAE
Labour Ban and Immigration ban is still a big confusion for employees here in UAE. A ban on visa means, that the person who is served the particular ban is not entitled to live and work in the UAE for a particular time or permanently. This may happen in a way of:
- Immigration Ban
- Labour Ban

Immigration Ban or Residence Ban
If you have immigration ban in UAE, you are not supposed to enter UAE or obtain residency in UAE. You may be served with immigration ban if you have committed criminal offences. In case you have Bounced cheques, bad debt cases against you, you will have immigration ban till the time you are cleared or you have served your sentence. You may also be served immigration ban if you have been found drunk driving, theft and other crimes. If you have entered UAE with illegal means, then too you will be facing immigration ban.
In case if you have absconded from your work and have not reported to work for a prolonged time, your employer may list you under absconding list, and you will have immigration ban. The changes in labour ban has not affected the immigration ban. Immigration ban is issued by Department of Naturalisation and Immigration in UAE, which is part of Ministry of Interior.
Labour Ban
There are 2 types of labour bans:
- 6 Month Labour Ban
- One year Labour Ban
6 Month Ban
In the past, companies and employers were able to prevent their employees from changing jobs for 6 months by imposing what is called as labour ban. This would ban an employee from changing visa for the first 6 months of cancelling visa/labour card. This ban system was removed after UAE Cabinet Resolution No 25 of 2010, which removed ban after continuous work of Two years with employer.
MOL came up with new resolutions in lates 2015 and early 2016 which mandated that with educational certificates (Attested high school diploma or greater submitted as part of the visa application process) or who have been working for more than Six months, will not face any labour ban. However, there are instances and examples that Authorities still impose labour bans. However, the labor ban has no impact in free zones.
A 6 month labour ban is an automatic ban which is imposed when you leave your current job without any proper reason. Every employee under Ministry of Labour is automatically banned for 6 month; unless they are exempt from ban due to their new employer status (Freezone, Government), qualification above High School Diploma and salary of AED 5000 for High School, AED 7000 for Diploma holders and AED 12000 for Bachelor’s degree holders.
If you have 6 month labour ban, there is no restriction for you to enter UAE on visit or tourist visa.
One year Ban
A one year ban will be imposed if you have not completed your limited labour contract. You will not be able to visit UAE in case you have been slapped with One Year Labour ban.
One year ban is also imposed if:
- Expatriate worker leaves Government job.
- If you break terms and conditions of your labour contract.
- If you lose a case in the court against your employer.
Labor Ban: Limited Term Contract
First 6 months of employment After 6 months of employment After Renewal of Initial Fixed Term
With Education Certificate Limited risk of labor ban if:
1. the employer consents to
resignation; or
2. employer terminates
without cause.Risk of ban if employer does not consent to employee resignation, unless if resignation is effective as of the end of a limited term contract Generally no labor ban, but risk of ban if the employee breaches the Labor Law or contract, such as not giving and honoring the required notice period
.
No Education Certificate Risk of ban if,
1. Before end of limited term
contract; or
2. Employer does not consent
during the limited term.
Labor Ban: Unlimited Contract
First 6 months of employment After 6 months of employment
With Education Certificate Risk of labor ban, unless:
1. Mutual agreement of the parties;
2. The employer has failed to meet its legal or contractual
obligations, including, without limitation, the duty to pay the
wages for over 60 days; or
3. The employer winds up its business; or
4. Court ruling in favor of the employee.Generally no labor ban, but risk of ban if the employee breaches the Labor Law or contract, such as not giving and honoring the required notice period
No Education Certificate Risk of labor ban, unless:
1. The employer has failed to meet its legal or contractual
obligations, including, without limitation, the duty to pay the
wages for over 60 days
2. The employer winds up its business.
3. Court ruling in favor of the employee.
Ban in Free Zones
Some free zones also apply bans on the transfer of employees within companies in the free zones registered within them without the approval of the previous employer. The information bans are often not publicized and this policy keeps changing from time to time, and from free zone to free zone.
How to lift labour ban in UAE or immigration ban in UAE?
To read more, please visit the article on how to lift 6 month labour ban.
Many professional workers can lift the ban, as the ban is typically waived if an employee moves to a position with a higher salary of AED 5,000 for high school diploma, AED 7,000 for post-secondary diploma, and AED 12,000 for bachelor degrees).
Under which situations there is no Labour Ban?
If you fall under below categories, you may not have a labour ban:
- UAE Nationals will not have labour ban or immigration ban.
- If you are joining an oil company.
- If you are joining Government or Semi-government organisation.
- If you are changing jobs within the same Free zone.
- If you have completed your contract term under limited contract.
- If you have completed 3 years of service under unlimited contract.
Permanent residence ban
A permanent residency ban is applied for serious labour offences committed, like illegal or absconding workers and convicted felons. The Federal Department of Immigration maintains a file of fingerprint samples and retina scans of banned individuals so that they are not able to return to UAE in the future.
Comparison between Immigration Ban and Labour Ban:
Removing Immigration ban in UAE.
Immigration Ban Labor Ban
Who regulates this? Immigration and Naturalization Department, Ministry of Interior Ministry of Emiratization and Human Resources (former Ministry of Labor)
When is this ban imposed? Employer must submit a formal complaint that the employee either:
1. committed a crime; or
2. seriously damaged the employer.See tables related to Limited Contract and Unlimited Contract above.
What is the scope of ban? Prevents the person from entering or staying in the country. An immigration ban is typically followed by an order to leave the UAE or Deportation. Prevents the person from applying for a new work visa, but not from entering or residing in the country. A labor ban does not prevent a person from visiting the UAE by way of a valid visit visa
How long is this ban? One year (generally), but may be as short of six months or may be a lifetime ban depending from case to case This is applied for six months generally.
Where is this applicable? The territory of the UAE, without exception. The territory of the UAE outside the free zones. Although some free zones maintain separate labor ban systems, a labor ban may stop an employee from being issued a work visa in a free zone, or to work for a government entity
Can you lift the ban? Immigration ban can not be lifted although may be removed on an exceptional basis. Can be lifted withh:
1. a court order;
2. the issuance of a Non-Objection Certificate (NOC) from the former employer; and
3. in some cases, the payment of a fine.
How to check UAE visa ban status / immigration blacklist check/ immigration travel ban / passport ban with passport number?
The best way to check your ban status in UAE is to call up the Immigration department in case of Immigration ban and MOL in case of Labour ban. Give the call centre agent your passport number and other details like previous visa number and they’d provide you with an update. If you have left the UAE with some debts behind, the financial institution may have filed a case against you. In such cases, your representative can walk into any Dubai Police stations with your passport copy, Emirates ID (if available) and Authority Letter to check for any cases registered. If the cases are registered, then definitely you may have immigration ban meaning you will not be able to transit or enter UAE.
To check whether you have a labour ban, you will need to call MOL or MOHRE on their call centre number and enquire with your Passport Number or Emirates ID.
Please note, you also should take consultation of a qualified Lawyer in UAE for these procedures.

Under What circumstance I can get a Labour ban?
When an employee violates the provision of the UAE Labour Law and / or related ministerial resolutions and circulars or does not observe the terms and conditions stipulated in the employment contract Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE) or the General Directorate of Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA) can issue a labour ban. When a labour ban issued the employee is not legally allowed to work in another company in UAE for a certain period of time till the ban period is completed which may be for a one year.
The reasons of a Labour ban issued by the GDRFA are different from those issued by MOHRE.
This could be based on other reasons not related to employment issues, such as serious criminal offences, security reasons, illegal entry to the UAE and so on.
To whom Labour ban can be imposed and how this is imposed?
If an employee violated the UAE Labour Law and its related executive resolutions ,Labour ban can be imposed to anyone whether they may be under the category of skilled or non skilled workers.
The ban can be issued not only to who has residence visa but also to a employee who is having labour contract and work permit under the family visa sponsorship.
There is no eService to apply for a Labour ban against an employee. However, the application of ban requires an investigation from a legal representative from MOHRE who would invite both parties, the employer and employee, take their statements, judge the seriousness of the request and decide whether to accept it or not.
When can the employer apply for a Labour ban?
The employer can impose a labour ban under below circumstances: if an employee
- committed any of the violations listed in Article 120 of the UAE Labour Law
- stayed in the UAE after the termination of his employment contract, for any reason, for more than two months without legal justification
- worked with another company without obtaining a work permit from MOHRE
- illegally terminated the employment contract or did not observe the provisions of the UAE Labour Law. For example, not respecting the notice period mentioned in his non-limited contract or terminating his limited contract before the end of its duration
Additionally, a Labour ban is imposed on a new non-skilled worker who did not complete six months of service with their respective employers.
How long the Labour ban can be for and what will happen to the residence visa?
The Labour ban can be for one year or permanent. Once you have the labour ban it cancels the work permit. Upon cancellation the employer must proceed to the cancellation procedure of the residence visa of the employee whom the labour ban is imposed.
If the banned employee is on the family sponsorship (spouse or parents) he or she can maintain the residence visa but not allowed to work for the duration of the ban.
If the banned employee is outside the country, no new work permit will be issued to him until the lapse of the ban period.
How can I check if there is a Labour ban imposed on me?
You can call MOHRE on 800 60 or visit their website. You can also visit a Tasheel centre.
Can I contest the Labour ban?
You can contest a Labour ban by submitting a grievance to MOHRE through one of its Tasheel centres, via the MOHRE website –www.mohre.gov.ae or email – [email protected].
To find a Tasheel centre near you, click here: https://www.mohre.gov.ae/en/services/labour-offices.aspx.
You must attach all supporting documents with your grievance, which prove that you do not deserve a ban.
You will then receive a reference number to follow up on your request.
MOHRE will form a special committee chaired by the undersecretary and certain directors of departments to study these requests and decide whether to lift or maintain the ban.
Afterwards, the employee will be notified of the decision of the committee.
Is it possible to cancel the Labour ban?
No, once the labour ban is issued you cannot cancel a Labour ban or get it waived by paying a fee. A labour ban is lifted automatically after the lapse of the ban period imposed by MOHRE.

My friend was force to
leave the UAE without the company’s aproval.
He applied for leave because of his wedding.
He already told his boss that the wedding will be this december last august and the bost assured him that the leave will be granted. 45 days before the planned travel date my friend filed his leave and the boss signed this with a note of aproval upon replacement. Few weeks after the submission my friend followed up this leave but then it was declined…
He went to the head office as all plans were set for the wedding because it was initially approved by his boss… Meanwhile, my friend negotiated that if he can do a split trip meaning he will go home this week and then come back again near the wedding date however, when my friend went to see his boss to file his 2 days leave since there’s a three days holiday the boss didnt allow the leave and yet he said he wont also allow him to go home for the wedding…. j
He didnt have a choice but to leave Dubai without the employer’s knowledge.
Can you tell me how will it impact his visa and what are the consequences of his actions?
and how to counteract this problem please.
Hi. I just want to inquire about the case of my husband. He applied before in a food industry and the visa position they applied is Waiter but he was working as Call center sales. Meanwhile, he underwent for medical then they have found out that there’s a scratch in his X-Ray. Xray happened for one time only and the doctor told him that it is not actually TB, its just a scratch only. Then after 2 days we just received a call from his employer that they have booked for his ticket on Sunday. It was thursday morning , my husband went to somewhere (I forgot the place) they took his fingerprint and scanned his eye. Thursday afternoon , I decided to go to his employer to verify this issue together with my husband but they were saying that we don’t have any chance to escalate this issue to higher authority/labour . So, Friday and Saturday there’s no governmental sector , since we are hoping to ask and inquire about this immediate action taken by his employer. I have noticed that there was a stamp mentioning Un-fit…. Permanent. I cant understand the others since it was written in arabic. Now, is there still a chance for him to come back here in UAE ? Actually he’s already taking medication just to prevent the scratch not to be TB in the Philippines.
Hi , I worked in a company registered in free zone in 2007 . I resigned the company when I was out from UAE in 2007 but my company did not cancel my residence / employment visa.

From the last 10 years , I have not visited UAE in any visa . My question is , still I can not enter in UAE untill & unless my old company cancel my old visa that was issued in 2007 or ban automatically lifted after passing such long period of time . Can I visit UAE now in any visa ? Please advice me.

Hi,
i was previously working with a LLC company in dubai. when they reported me absconding. thereon, i raised an absconding removal request in the MOL which is still pending after 7 month as my Dues case is going on in labor court which i started after absconding removal application. and as per legal officer in MOL absconding if removed prior to the dues case decision i might get a BAN. while i worked for the co. almost six years as a Project Engineer and my contract was unlimited.
and i also have all the evidence that i was in contact with the company.
Please advise if i get the the absconding removed from MOL. am i likely going to have a ban ?
Yes. labour ban is applicable under probation period.
IF the company has confirmed that they will not issue ban, you may not have a ban.
It is also beneficial to read about skill level
I guess so.
Once you have absconded, only the company/person that put you under absconded list can apply to remove.
if the company does not exist anymore then what to do?

Hi Mr. Deepak.
I am in Unlimited Contract and My Contract is already finished on 11/07/2017 but I just got to know through mohre. Even my company didn’t remind me yet. My visa is going to expire on 16/09/2017. I would like to change the company.
What is the rules I need to follow?
Since I have further 1 month to finish my visa, Is it enough to give 1 month notice period now…
please advise me dear.
You should have already served your notice period.
IF the company requires, you can serve the notice period.
Are you on limited contract or Unlimited contract?
Mine abu dhabi emplymlent visa 2time rejected and visit vesa of dubai 1time rejecteed can any one give me its specific reason its why?even i have no any objection or offsense or claim
Not sure about this. Please inquire with respective department.
Hi! There has been a ban on me due to the fact that my visa was not cancelled properly when I left the country. I was working in a private corporate in a high level and had to leave urgently without cancelling my visa. Now I tried to come back but my visa application got rejected and we found out that I have a ban. I contacted my previous employer in UAE and they apologized on the matter and proceeded to cancel my visa.
How long it will take to cancel the ban and when can I get a work permit again?
It should not take more than few days for this process.
If you do not have a labour contract, how are you working?
I am not too sure whether 1 year ban can be lifted.
Please contact MOL/MOHRE on this.
I joined this company where i am working at present 3 months back , now i got an offer(AED8000
) which is 3 times my current salary(AED2500) , would there be a ban if i try to switch? If so what can i do?
This will depend on your skill level

You could also directly approach immigration.

I have read so many posts about the lifetime ban in UAE. However have not come across any reliable answer. Could you please tell me if there is any legal way to remove a life ban for absconding. There is no other case apart from absconding. It was in 2003 when I left Dubai and didn’t go back due to various reasons.
Please advise

Hi Sir,
10 years before i am leave in Dubai by out pass 2007 – my case absconding .but Government give out pass(2006-2007) so i request for any ban in U,A,E ? please send me message.
I am on husband sponsorship…I join my present company on 10/01/2015 under limited contract… but I was unaware that my employer didn’t proceed for my labour card… and after 10 months they applied for my labour card i.e. 31/10/2015, which I come to know later.
Additionally, My owner behavior is also not good, he always shouts, make unnecessary deduction and use using inappropriate words in-front of all staff, Every day I working 10 Hours although contract is of 8 hours (Without any Overtime pay, I have attendance sheet as proof), even they are not providing me and Public holidays (Except EID)
On 10/01/2017 I told him that as I want to quit the job as I completed my two year with you, so he started pressuring me to complete my contract that is till 31/10/2017,
Finally I tired with all harassment and 05/02/2017 I went directly from office to tahseel and register complain against him for Pending salary, Cancellation, all overtime, Pubic holidays pay. And I got appointment of 22/02/2017
When I went Labour office for 1st hearing on 22/02/2017, But it was very disappointing to see the legal advisor Behavior towards me, She was not ready to listen me even, She spoke to my owner over the phone before I entered to her cabin, and when I entered she started blaming me that I am wrong and I have to pay him money etc.. etc.. I was keep requesting her that at-least give a chance to present my problem in-front of you. But She said this is first hearing I cannot give you more than 5 minutes you can move not..
Al though I was having all the proof (Attendance sheet, 1st salary Receipt, Offer letter, Emails) but still she support my owner. Instead of looking it my proof she started pointing out loop-holes in my proofs.
Please guide me how to solve above mention problem.
Is it possible to get my all overtime and public holidays as I have Manual Attendance sheet with In and Out timings (i.e 9:00 AM to 7 PM) of all employees and it also shows that I worked 10 hours every days and also on public holidays.
Is all the above proof is enough to get my benefits?
hi
Sir
I have worked 3 year 11 months in Dubai.It’s jafza visa(3year).my first visa is renewed and renewed visa expires on 24/5/2018. Before 9 months l came for a vacation and I couldn’t returned due to health problems.now last 9 months am in India.
Is there any ban on my passport? My visa is cancelled or not? Can I apply for a new visa,in a new company,not Jafza visa.?
6 months that you are out in UAE your visa will automatically cancelled and maybe for sure your company processed it already. And yes you can apply in any company not unless your previous company did not file a case for you for not returning back from your vacation.

Hi
Will I have ban if I was fired from my current job without completed my contract period?
Dear Sir,
With reference to the above I have certain questions in my mind, I hope you will help me out.
Previously I was working with company A (Having unlimited type Contract), and now I am currently working with company B (Having limited type Contract), so when I joined to company B…company A ban me for six month since my visa was Clerk, now company B issued Site supervisor Visa which I am carrying (just to avoid Ban) and assure me to issue Engineer visa once Visa ban was cleared..now I am waiting for update in Engineer Visa.
Now I don’t want to continue with company B due to some unpleasant situation.
So I have questions like, can I change company B to any other company without affecting anything…?
PS: I am about to complete 4 months with Company B.
Hoping for your response at earliest.
Hi Deepak,
I was working in a company as site engg. I completed my contract and cancelled the visa, Someone told me there are 28 days after cancellation you can find new job. I got a job but after 30 days , they give me offer letter and they ask for passport. When i went to my previous company for passport they said we have submit in abu dhabi immigration office, when i went there to collect my passport they caught me , then they told me you have absconding case. Then I was in jail after few days judge told me about my profession, how you came here, all things. Then I was sentenced 1 month imprisoned. After completing my sentence they scan my eyes and figures.
Now my question is if I have served my sentence then still I have life time ban ??
Or 1 year.
It probably is a lifetime ban, they do not scan eyes and fingers for labour ban (6months or 1 year)
Only immigration bans have those scans.

In behalf of my sister, she was received an offer letter and starting to work last January 10,2016 under tourist visa. But her employer promised to process her work permit after 3 days of training supposed to be by January 13, 2016. Then suddenly her employer processed last March, 2016. Then, she has a work permit last march only and my sister expected to receive her salary for the month of January and February but her employer pay only 1 salary for the month of march. My sister is hopeless because she felt not compensated and her other colleagues still no salary for how many months. Then she decided to resigned and they both agreed by verbal that she don’t have ban in one condition that she will not file a case against the company and please note here that her passport not yet stamp in the immigration but she finish already her medical. My question is after this cancellation? What we will do next? What are the possibilities will be happen? Is there a ban in labour or immigration and How many months? How to lift up this ban? It is possible to enter again her in UAE as tourist or visit visa. Please kindly helps me.
Thank you an best regards…

Hi Deepak,
I have a friend who was canceled 6 months back. They said its because he has scar on his lungs. He made spotium test in sonapur and said it was from old tb. Them we make gold test and find negative because he really never had a time that he had tb on his life. He had UTI when he was in high school that made his immune system very low that was the reason why he has scan. When he was canceled they put permanent ban. Isnt it unfair for a person who wants to work or even visit dubai? Pls help how to lift the ban. Im glad Sheik Kalifa made a new law to have those people renewed their visa even they have scar or tb it self. Hope for him ban can be lifted also.
Yours

Dear Deepak,
Wish you a good day.
I have been working with one company here in UAE as a Mech Engineer and on Engineer visa. Not comfortable to go forward as there is delay is salary payments for 2 months and no proper system.Would like to switch to another company in UAE itself.My family is also with me here in UAE ,sponsored by myself.Is there a way I can switch over to another company without my self or family exiting UAE.
Secondly what can I do if the company does not cancel my visa.
Hi Mr. Deepak,
I would like to ask for your advise regarding my situation. My visa was already cancelled last 29-Sep-15 and my cancellation paper mentioned that i should exit before 28-Sep-15. But I have already received a job offer and they have started processing the labor quota. Unfortunately, it was not approved and was resubmitted. I was advised by my new employer to not exit an they will be shouldering my penalty for the overstay and my previous employer also do not have any objection as long as I will not overstay until 28-Nov-15 to avoid any immigration case. I need your advise if it is okay to overstay and just pay for the penalty upon issuance of the penalty or if there is any legal repercussions to me if I would be overstaying. Also, please note that if in case there would be more delays in the processing of my new visa, I have my ticket already on 17-Nov-15 so I will be going back to my home country with or without the new visa. Is there any chance that I will be blacklisted? I don’t have any qualms of paying all the fines for the overstay. Your prompt response will be very much appreciated.
Help needed. Is it possible to re enter UAE on hisband sponcership if we have 1 year labour ban.
Hi Mr Deepak,
I am finished with my 2 years contract last august 2015.My residence visa will expirw on Nov. 9 and i am still working for my company.I received an email from them that they will not renew my contract.They send me a paper to sign.It is mention in the paper that there will be no working permit will be issued upon 6 months of cancellation.I am just wondering how did i get a ban if l am finished with my contract already.
Dear Deepak,
Firstly you are doing a great job…may God bless you!
I am a British Citizen and Chartered Certified Accountant by profession. I have a situation and seek your advice:
I found an employment in Dubai through a friend in June2015 and moved to Dubai with family on 12/08/2015…I joined my employer on 16/08/2015. But within first few weeks I realised that I would not be able to adjust in the working environment there-which I felt very stressful… due to office stress and other family settlement challanges made me ill and I fell into depression….
I came back to UK with my family on 12/09/2012. I know, I should have cancelled the visa before leaving UAE.
But I didn’t plan to leave like this. I had a plan to bring my family back first (so that my children can resume their study in UK) and go back to see if I could try working in the same company for a little longer or look for some other opportunity. But the company officials started threatening me before I left Dubai that they could have stopped me at Dubai airport…
For your information, I have contacted the owner of the company by email and explained the situation but he didn’t reply. I contacted the HR as well but no response.
My questions are:
1) Will I able to cancel the work permit without going back to Dubai?
2) How would I know if I have been banned to enter UAE?
3) If I am banned, will I be able to visit UAE on visit visa Or be able to get a connecting flight via UAE?
I look forward to your response. I hope you can advice!
Thank you
Hi Mr. Deepak,
My company wants to give me 1 year ban. I didn’t do anything illegal. I have an unlimited contract. I resigned after 9 months in the company. I gave them 30-day notice for the resignation and they had no problem about it. I’m already out of the company for almost 3 weeks. I actually went to the office last week and we talked about the settlement and my boss has no problem with it. He told the accounting to go and process my settlement. Now I’m waiting for the settlement pay and visa cancelation. But now I talk to the accounting and they want to give me 1 year ban. I am confused right now.
Julio,
It is not clear to me what kind of ban is this?!
Hi Deepak,

Respected sir
I am working in a shopping mall sharjah since 7 months, I have 2 years contract visa with my employer, but now I want to cancel my visa due to some serious emergency at my home, even I applied for cancellation, I wrote a resignation letter to my GM. But arbab is not willing to accept it. Two of other workers already applied for their cases in labour office, but arbab doesn’t attend his presence there, so I would like to know how can I cancel my visa ASAP, if I ask to police, can they let me go??
Rayyan,
Only MOL and AUthorities can help you.
my friend is on 3 month visit in UAE he want to be ban for 1 year.

My Friend won his case on labour, but the employeer got drama when cancelling on immigration, they keep it on pending until it is over due and fle an absconding to him, the PRO just call him and said meet me so we can cancel you but instead he put him into jail and he can’t defend himself because the PRO and Police talk in arabic and the police do not listen to him. He was deported and his cancellation was stamp with showing #5 on it, is there any way that it can be lifted or checked his status?what does it mean? Appreciate you help.
TJ,

Hi Mr. Deepak!! Hope everything is well with you. Sir I want to know if my company can give me a ban. I already completed my 2 years as per on my labour card (expiry date – October 6, 2015) but my labour contract will expire on December 4, 2015. And I want to leave my company. Can they give any ban?

Hi! I was in a visit visa way back 2009, and I got a job last 2010 in trading company with Iranian employer. Unfortunately when they applied me a residence vise, the immigration denied it because of medical problem. It is something with the lungs problem, they saw a scar, but I don’t have any sick like tuberculosis. They give me a ticket to return to my country immediately. The immigration in sharjah did an eye scan to me. Just want to ask if they gave me a lifetime ban and cannot enter to uae anymore? Waiting for your reply. Thanks.
Katherine,
If they have done eye scan, I think you may not be able to visit uae.
Dear Sir,
I am graduate.
I’m working in a company for one year and 7 months with unlimited contract. My designation in the labor contract is Development Manager. If I resign and join another company with salary less than AED 10,000/ will there be labor ban? My colleagues telling there won’t be ban….
If there is labor ban, and if I get NOC from the current company, can get I exempted from ban while applying for visa in the new company?
Please help me sir.

I joined the company on 24/08/15 in Ajman, UAE on a 2 year limited Contract with 6 months probation. My contract clearly states that “Either party can terminate this contract by providing one month notice or salary in lieu of the notice period” and it also states that “In case of voluntary or involuntary discontinuation of service, the visa cost for the balance period will be charged from you before you leave the organisation or it will be settled from your final dues” … My gross monthly salary is AED 4,500. I am an ACCA member and CPA Ireland Member with bachelor degree. I want to leave this job because the working environment is not good and I realized that am getting a very less salary compared to industry average based on my experience and qualification.
I luckily got a job in a reputed organisation of Dubai and the salary is AED 8 K + … Will I be suffering the ban or if so what are the ways to avoid it. Am desperately waiting for your reply.. I am ready to pay the employer with visa cost and all .. Please guide me
Muhammad,
Professionals like you may not face labour ban.
But since it is limited contract, I am not sure about this.
Pleas consult MOL on this matter.
Starting January 2016, you will face no ban.

Hi mr. deepak,
Just wanted to ask. I have been employed to a private company for almost 2 months and they hired me when I was still in my tourist visa. Now they let me work for about 3 weeks before my entry permit(pink visa) arrived and made me have an airport to airport exit on my expense. Now Today my employer said that I have to pay my entry permit visa fee as it was a charge from the immigration not from their PRO. I believe that they should shoulder this as this is part of completing my working visa here in UAE. He said that this is being charged to me as I have stayed here in UAE when the pink visa was issued. But what I don’t get is that I had done A-A exit, and why is this still being charged. Can you please help and give a clearance to this?
Also I’m still in my probation period, If I we’re to leave this company, will I have a Ban?
My employer hasn’t shown me any Labour Contract and the only thing that I have signed was my Offer letter which was given to me by them.
Joy,
All expenses related to your visa need to be paid by your company.
my name is mohammed rashik, iam a post graduted in microbiology and working in shajha,iam still not finish my first unlimited visa,i had completed 18month,so now i got good oppertunity(AED 5000),can i move to new company? any ban isse?please advice me immeadiately.

Hi sir right now am working as a taxi driver under the rta and been working here for 1 and half year is there any chance to avoid the 1 year ban? Plz reply
Wenna,
I don’t think you could avoid labour ban if you have not completed your contract.
Our company has terminated a post graduate web designer. Ours is a non-free zone company. She had worked with us for about 9 months. We have applied to MOL for work permit cancellation. In that it says no work permit will be issued till 6 months from the date of cancellation. Now that ex-employee wants to join another non free zone company and have asked us to issue a No Objection Letter towards transfer of Visa under another company. So should we issue such a certificate? Will this create any problem for our company in future? And Does this help the ex-employee to lift the Ban?
Radhika,
Yes, you could issue. It will help someone and it is no obligation on you and no risk.
NOC could help in lifting the labour ban.
Hi Deepak
I have one question, 4Month Before i move to Freezone company from LLC. Now i got good offer in another freezone comapany. Please advice is there any ban or problem if i move to new company ?

If you currently work in the free zone, labour ban does not apply.
Hi Deepak,
Background Facts – (1) I was working in Dubai from Jan 2007 to Oct 2007 (8 months). I had few health complications and had to return to my home country. My employer gave me only 30 days leave but I would not recover. So, I stayed back in my home country and never rejoined the job in Dubai.
(2) During my last few days of my stay, my roommate stole my credit card and use it for some purchases which I was not aware of it till 2014 when some credit card agency traced me and informed me that there is an outstanding in my credit card. I disputed but I don’t have any proof that I did not use my credit card. So I negotiated and paid/settled the card.
(3) Now another agency is pestering me that there is an amount outstanding.
My Query – (a) Is there any source to check whether any criminal or any other type of case is pending under my name
(b) Is there any source to check whether their is any type of Immigration ban is there on me?
Regards
Vinod
Vinod,
Only immigration department can help you.
You should always obtain clerance certificate once settled.
Hello Deepak,
I am currently working in Calibre Hardware L.L.C in Nakheel, Dubai. My Visa has been stamped on August 4 2015 and i want to change my job because i am not getting the salary as i was told during the interview. Is there any way through which i should not face the ban . please le me know ?
Mansoor,
Important: As per the new labour laws, bachelors will not face labour ban.
Can You please what is the limited time in the labour contract. I am having Sales visa and my visa has been stamped on august 4 , so there any limited time i have to work so that i should not face the ban or can i leave my job now also.
Mansoor,
You must complete your contract to avoid labour ban.
Hi Deepak,
Hope you are doing well.
First of all I would like to thank you for doing doing such a great job.
I want to ask you about labour ban and here is my condition.
I am working in a non-free zone company in sharjah as a Web Designer for 1.5 years and on my visa my position is written “sales executive” recently my company wants to terminate me because they said they don’t have enough resource to pay my salary hence I can look for another job and my current salary is AED 4000 and I got an offer form a company in dubai which is FZ LLC company and they are offering me AED 6500. I want to mention here that I dont have bachelor degree I only have my matriculation certification (attested). I already spoke with Ministry of labour help line they told me that I’ll face an automatic ban when my visa is cancelled which is removable but I am just worried because I have only my matriculation certificate. and I also want to mention that my contract in my current company is unlimited. So do I need to worry about ban in my case or not??
Thank in advance.
Syed,
For your new salary you may not have issue with labour ban.
Also if you join a free zone, there may be no labour ban applicable.
However, depends which free zone you are joining.
I have unlimited contact in which my boss wrote Salary Aed 700 but i am getting Aed 1500. i came in UAE on company’s visa 26-Sep-2014 but they stamped my visa on passport in 14 Nov. I am Bcom. Now an other company is offering me above 3000. Now can you tell me about ban ?
Naveed,
If you do not complete your contract, you will face labour ban.

Think also of the company that depends on you for the work.

Dear All
With due respect,recently i got ban for one year from UAE and while i am coming back doing immigration in Dubai airport i asked them about the stamp reason they said no problem you can visit after one year
But i heard that this might be life time ban from entry in UAE. But i didn’t make any mistake in my 11 years there in UAE.
Will you please help me out regarding this problem.Is there anything exist like this ban.
Fateh,
If immigration has confirmed something to you, it must be true.
Dear Mr.Deepak
So how i can get the details for this one year ban and also i wanna ask, is it normal thing when somebody ban from UAE for one year should give eye scan and fingerprints and secondly is there any way to left this ban before completing one year.
PLEASE DO REPLY
Fateh,
No, when you are banned for one year, you do not need to provide eye scan.
You could further enquire in MOL and immigration.

I haven’t completed my 2 years Dubai visa contract and my company is putting me a ban of 1 year.
My new company is free zone.
Can my new company will be able to issue me a free zone visa even thought I got 1 year ban on Dubai visa.?
Awaiting for your reply.
Aarif,
If it is limited contract and you have ban, then you may not be able to join even free zones!!
In the ban period to join the new free zone government job

IF you have labour ban, Yes.

Hi deepak sir,
Sir currently am doing a job in taxi co. As taxi driver my contract is limited and only 5 months completed as doing job I have resigned as emergency without one month period because my co doesn’t accept resign when they know about new job offer. I have a new job offer at Free zone government job after cancelation maybe 1 year ban or 6 months ban is it possible after leaving with ban to home country can I came back here in the ban period please inform me about
Sibghat,
You will need to ask the company as taxi companies have separate laws being semi government companies linked to RTA.
Dear Deepak,
You have helped in in past as well and would be thankful if you could support me in this situation.
Recently 4 months back I have joined a job in Abu Dhabi with Salary of 16000 AED with Unlimited contract. But their is some serious problems going on in this company which was not expected before I join. Anyhow now that I have my visa stamped in this company I still managed to find one good offer in Jebel Ali Free Zone.
So now what will be the consequences??? I have some question
1. I have a probation period of 6 months which says either party can terminate the contract without any notice period… Is it that i can leave immediately??? As i have completed only 4 months in this company and still on probation.
2. Will it post a ban on me???? I think so
3. Ban for how long?
4. As I am finding Jebel Ali Free Zone job with salary of 20000 (I am not a graduate but) so will it be possible that I will get a visa or still do I have to serve the ban period???
5. I have my wife and Kid on my sponsorship. What about them? will they also have a ban???
Bilal,
1. It depends on your contract and what is written about notice period during probation.
2. It won’t apply for the salary you have .
3. No ban, I guess.
4. What is the position offered?
5. You need to cancel them first in order to cancel your visa. No, they won’t have Ban!
HI Mr. Deepak,
I have seen your expertise on visas and immigration related matters. It is on this regard that I wanted to ask for some advise/answers on some question I have.
My brother in law works in a limited contract company. He completed only 3 and half years in service and he resigned.
After cancellation, he was given 1 year MOL ban.
We tried to apply visit visa through the company im working in JAFZA Freezone. I believed that 1 year labour ban can still apply for a visit visa right?
Unfortunately, when we applied for a 1 month visit visa, immigration has rejected it.
Is there possibility for this case to be approved and be issued a visit visa?
Your reply asap is greatly appreciated.

Juvilyn,
Usually this is not the case. This is news to me.
But as you know, the laws and regulations change very often.
Dear sir,
Currently I am working in Dubai as a programmer from last four months, I am not satisfy with this job and I got another job in Abudhabi . Currently I have 6000 and new company offered 6000 + accommodation food and transportation . I was completed MCA. I am worrying about UAE labour ban. Is it possible to avoid labour ban?
Mr. Deepak,
Good day!
I am working in a Private Company for only 6months, under Limited Contract. Now, I am planning to resign and I am aware that I will have a automatic 6months Ban and it depends on the company if they will give me another 6 months ban. I just want to ask in case I will be facing a 1 year Labour Ban, am I still be able to come to UAE holding a Tourist/Visit Visa while I have 1 year labour ban?
Isabella,
If you have labour ban, you could visit UAE on visit visa/tourist visa.
Dear sir, I was in sharjah (holding free zone visa), but when I got good job out side free zone in sharjah i resigned my current job and break contract of 2 years in 4 months. now i am in my home country to waiting a visa from my new employer, but my new employer saying that my visa rejected 2 times from labor department. and the did not gave any visa processing document to me. so, any ban enforced on me?
Mehul,
I am not aware of Sharjah free zone laws. Sorry!
Hi Deepak,
Iam a MBA degree holder and my contract is unlimited. I completed only 2 months and am still under my probation period… Last week my management informed me to look for other vacancies on the account of cost cutting in my company. So pls advice will i face a 6 months ban.. It not my fault though…. Is NOC alone enough or even the company which is offering me new job should give me 12000 salary to lift my 6 months ban ???
Dear Deepak,
Hope you are doing good.
First of all really thanks for your wonderful help for all people.
I wrote you before my queries but you did not answered me. Well, no issue as there are lot of queries you answer every day. So i can understand.
I am working in a trading company in Industrial Area, Sharjah, UAE. A privately owned small company. I have not completed six month here but i want to resign. I know there is a ban if before contract end we resign.
My question is….:
Here my salary was 4500 AED with no commission..nothing more than that. Now a company from Ajman Free Zone offered me 5000 AED with some commission as per sales (i am in Sales).
1. In case of limited or unlimited contracts (both) …. should i get the ban of 6 month or 1 year?
2. If i accept the employment in Ajman Free Zone…ban will be removed or it will be still there….if there how can i remove if not there then what documents i will need for new employment…
3. Salary / designation has any impact on ban as i am Bachelor degree holder (attested)…and current visa status is Sales Executive?
4. Can my old employer bane me completely if he want in order to stop my employment within UAE……as i have no legal case..nothing like that….just resigning before 6 month due to financial cause and will join new company for the same cause.
Kindly must update me for these points…. your fastest approach is required for me..
Shah,
Sorry to have missed the query.
1. Read: Unlimited Contract, Limited Contract, Labour ban
2. Free zones do not have labour ban.
3. Only if you require to sponsor your family.
4. That is only incase of serious crimes.

Hi Deepak,
I worked in Abu Dhabi for 5 months. Then came to India for vacation. I could not return due to emergency and resigned from India. 3-4 months later, I settled the expenses with my employer and got the Experience letter from them.
I want to know if there could be any absconding case? Can I come back to UAE again in future forvisit/transit?
Will there be issues to get visa for other countries?
Sid,
Only the company and immigration officials could confirm whether you have absconding case filed against you.
If you have absconding case against you, you may not be able to enter UAE.
I don’t think you will have troubles with other countries.
Thanks Deepak,
Is it possible for them to file absconding case? I read somewhere that employer can file absconding if the employee is in UAE. I was never in UAE after I put my resignation from India.
I also settled the minimum dues and got the experience letter from them
Hi Deepak,
I contacted the MOL and they informed me that the entry permit/visa has been cancelled.
There is no abscond reporting at MOL and also no labour ban as of now.
However, they could not five details on immigration ban if any.
Can there be an immigration ban if there is no abscond reporting at MOL?
Sid,
there needs to be valid reason for filing immigration ban.
Sid,
Yes and no.
I don’t think they’d have filed absconding case as you have settled your case.
Hi good day sir,which ban i can get if i’ll leave the Semi-Gov’t company by annual leave and go back to my origin without resigning. Is it still possible for me to come back in UAE after a certain period of ban. And there is no chance for me also to move to private company from Semi-Gov’t company? Thank you very much and have a nice day.
Jao,
You may be reported as absconding if you do such a thing.
After that, you will not be able to visit UAE.
Thank you for your reply sir. One more thing sir, what if there is private company willing to hire me,is it possible to move or is there any other way i can do to lift the ban or to pay to lift the ban? Thank you.
Jao,

Sir, I am on a unlimited contract with an International Company thru an agency. My contract states that I am only on a AED 4000 financing scheme dependent on target and with a monthly salary of 1 AED. I started working last June 1 however my resident visa states June 27. If I wanted to transfer to another job or I got an offer from another company, what should be the minimum offer or contract details of the new job to be able to transfer to the said job.. FYI I have a bachelor’s degree.
Georgi,
Sorry for the delay in replying. I was out of station for couple weeks.
You may face labour ban if you shift jobs without completing the contract.

If a lady cancelled her visa from previous company and did not complete 2 years. She was holding a position of Operations Manager in the previous company. She is planning to join the new company as Secretary with a salary of 5000. Will she get a labour ban? If so, how can this be lifted?
Jijo,
Labour ban will apply. Designations do not matter.

Hai Depak,
One of my friend is a kallivalli in UAE for the last 7 years. She is from Philippines. When she is going back she will get life ban. Then can she come back to UAE on a husband visa? Please reply me.

Hai dearz,
i had joined one company in Abu dhabi on June 2015, till now I am not getting salary and the other employees salary is already pending from May. My question is : Can I give resign to this cvompany, if I resigned did I get a ban? What I need to do avoid ban?
Sajid,
You should first file a complaint against the company in MOL.
Then you could resign once the decision is made.
Hi Deepak,
My friend was called here by a restaurant. They said that he will be working in the restaurant but after the exit and re-entry, restaurant manager told him that he has to work in his house as domestic servant. At this, he got scared and ran away. Restaurant manager kept his Passport and other documents in his custody and declared him absconder. Now, since then, he is living without any documents (more than a year now). We want to pay his total fines and get his passport and ID etc. back. What should we do now?
Hi,
I was living in Dubai for 13 years. 2 years ago my employer delayed on renewing my visa and after submitting my app it got rejected. We tried so many times but no chanse. Due to this point that my family were in Dubai and also My wife was pregnant I could not leave them alone and did not exit for 2 years. During these days I was jobless and staying home. My wife was partner in a company and was working instead of me. After sometimes I tired and decided to go awir immigration to talk and solve my issue. But they did not even listen and send me to jail and scanned my eyes and deported me. Now my wife and 3 kids are there and I am out of dubai for two month. There is only on exit stamp on my passport. I do not know if I am ban or not? If yes for how long?! And how can I remove and come back to my family?! Please advise the solution and logical reason.
Thank you very much
Mori,
If they have done iris scan, this could mean you may have a life ban.
To get more clarity, it is better for your representative to visit immigration and check.
But Why life time? what did i do?
really if it is matter of overstay i could pay the penalties? although my Sponsor saying they did not absconding me but what is this huge punishment for me?
Mori,
Sorry lost you there. Could you post the entire query?
Sir, good evening. My 2 years unlimited contract will end on November 2015. And i am planning not to renew nd tender my resignation after completing the 2 year contract. but due to the change in the Sponsor name they told me they need to cancel my current visa and place it with new one. Now it was already been cancelled. I am holding the New entry Work Visa with the stamp of “change status”. I called the MOL and as per their system my contract was cancelled. What will be the possible implications of this? Will i have labour ban? thank you
Rosch,
It is treated as a new sponsor.
You should make sure you get this change done in writing from your company.
Hello Dipak,
I am currently working in Dubai Airport Free Zone . I have unlimited contract and currently I am on Probation Period. I have completed 5 Months . I got another opportunity from another Dubai based company in Dubai Media City. If I will resign can I join another organization or is there any ban on it?
Thanks
nilesh
Nilesh,
I am not aware of the policies of free zones.
Hello Deepak,
I am an employer, I took on a manager for my business in January after being released from his company، he did his medical last week and we still didn’t stamp or get his MOL contract yet. He informed me that he would like to resign as he has found a better offer from NBAD for 13k.
I have paid all his visa costs up till now and will be left without a manager again but I cannot force someone who doesn’t want to work for me to work.
My question is will there will be an automatic ban applicable?
AK,
No, since he is joining a semi government organisation, even if there is ban, it will not be applicable.
HI
My friend is working in a llc company for last 8 months as engineer and having a salary of 3500 AED, but now due to the lack of project the company suggest him to leave the job, and another company in dubai is willing to give him a job as engineer for salary 4000 AED, present company is ready to give the NOC to this change,
Can you suggest this is valid or not?
if valid please give the proper instructions to be followed.
Can he work the new company without change the visa along with NOC only?
Manu,
With NOC, he could avoid labour ban.
Let him take the termination letter as well as NOC.
Hi Sir, how to lift lifetime ban imposed by the employer for absconding. This has happened to one of my friend who has completed her two years contract and got some good offer from the new employer and the previous employer made a complaint against her in immigration whereas she has valid proof with her of completion and she completed her contract as per the T&C with honesty and yet she has sent to home country now. Kindly advice what steps should she take to find the justice for herself.
Thank You.
-Ankur
Ankur,
What was the basis of complaint?
You could file a counter claim with immigration on her behalf.
There must be a valid proof to file such requests with immigration.
Her previous employer made a complaint in immigration that she is absconding from work. Whereas she didn’t and had complete her contract in full with honesty. She has all valid proofs with her.
Ankur,
Then you should approach immigration.

Hi Mr. Deepak,
Just want to ask if I got 6months labor ban can i still get the 3 months tourist visa . Will the 3 months visit visa will be deducted to 6 months labor ban or 6months labor ban means I need to be out of the UAE for 6monhts or just not to be employed within 6 months but still can stay in UAE. Your quick response will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Renev
Renev,
yes, when you have 6 month labour ban, you can visit UAE on tourist/visit visa.
But you can not work for any company under MOL. You could fine work in Free zone.
But certain free zones may not consider you if you have labour ban.

Good day.
Pervaiz,
Yes, you might face troubles with the job as the security checking with government/semi government is strict these days.
Also note that the financial institution may also file a police case against you which will result in criminal case.
If they have filed a police case, you will not be able to travel outside UAE.

Sindhu,
Breaking limited contract may result in 1 year ban.
Yes, you will also need to compensate your employer if you break limited contract.
Is there any problem in joining a govt hospital ,if I am on 1 year LABOUR BAN
Sindhu,
If it is labour ban there should not be any problem if the Government Hospital is OK with that!

Mani,
Labour Ban is automatically applied. What complaint are you going to file?
Hi Deepak,
I have some query related to my Labour contract, I am working under husband sponsorship and my Labour contract is under DWC, I want to shift to new job and by August 17th, its going to be 6 months, i want to know whether i have pay any amount to employer as training expenses because in my offer letter its mention if employee is not completing 6 months ( Freezone Labour Contract) , then they will have pay 5000 AED as company Training Expense. Please suggest for the same.
Geeth,
It depends on what is mentioned in your employment contract.
Good Evening. Currently i am working in one private company in abu dhabi for past three month. I got offer from semi government company so i planned to resign my current job. But the management saying if you doing like this we will do it for u as a Immigration for one year. So let me know the company have rights to do like that.
Saravanan,
What sort of contract do you have? Limited Contract or Unlimited Contract. Read the respective articles and also read about Probation period.
I was working as Sales Manager in a private company. After working 5 years on limited contract, due to a dispute I filed a labour case in AD labour court in July 2014 and my labour and visa expired in November 2014 during the proceedings of the court. I have got a new job offer as Business Development Manager in June 2015 and I went to labour to cancel my labour to join new company. At the time of cancelation labour told me that they will put ban for one year because my labour is expired more then 6 months (expired on Nov.2014). Now what to do? I can not work in the new company and now my family visa is also expired and now I can not renew it
Please help and tell me what should I do now??
Shakeel,
If MOL has given you their decision, you should abide by that.
Since you have overstayed on you visa, you will also need to pay fine which is roughly 25 dirhams per day.
You should approach MOL to reconsider their decision.
Dear Mr. Deepak
I am working in a Travel tourist LLC in ajman from march 2015 . I have unlimited contract. If I migrate to another company after 1 year, is there any labor ban?
Sinsha,

Hi,i just want to help my friend,she’s asking for some question,she was working in dubai before then she resigned and went back to our country,but she left her car without settelling it,the car loan is 4 years but she paid 17 months only,i just want to know if she can go back to dubai without facing any problem,do you think she is permanently ban in dubai or not.
Jhon,
That depends on whether the bank has filed a police case against the person or not!
Hi,
I am currently working for a government agency, they say that they will give 1 year immigration ban if I resign without finishing my contract. But I heard that if I transfer to a Freezone company the immigration ban will not be applicable. How true is this?
Kenneth,
What you have heard is wrong.
If you have immigration ban, you will not be able to obtain employment visa in UAE.
Hello,
Deepak, I haven’t received any reply from you.

Dear Deepak,
I wanted to resign from my current company as they don’t have any challenging work to do. I also have an offer from India and Planning to move there.
Having an unlimited contract and my 1 year period will end in mid September.
1. Will I face any other Ban apart from Labour ban ? (Labour ban is for 6 months right ?)
2. Do I have to pay any visa expenses, is it a law here in dubai ? if Yes how much does it cost for visa ?
Waiting for your reply.

(i had given my original certificate to the employer)
Saran,
If your labour approval is under process, you can not take up other offers.
You should ask the company to cancel the process.

Hi Deepak,
I had joined a company in april 2015, what if i get a job in government company(Sector) will there be ban for me or what should i do?
Please suggest.
Thanks
brahim,
Labor ban is automatic. However, if you get job in government organisation, ban may not be applicable.
However, it is up to the new company to consider you if you have labour ban.
hi,
i am working one of the semi-government. i already clear my credit card payment and now no any balance and inform bank for cancellation but as per them they will give the no dues latter after 48 days. can it affect during immigration or what should i have to keep with me to show them during exiting UAE.
Gohel,
I don’t think that will affect.
Did you default and was a case filed against you?
Take your latest credit card statement with you when you travel.
Yes, it takes up to 45 days to clear the credit card.
Hi Deepak ,

If yes, what type of ban it will be ?
is there any way to lift the ban ?

But my concern is that if my present company gives any complain against me will that be a problem please advice me ?
Also is the No objection Letter mandatory from the company i work now?
Sajan,
Have you signed any non-compete clause with your company?
Hi Deepak,
Hope your are doing good.I have new employment visa 2 weeks ago and as of now my tourist visa is not expired .Due to the working atmosphere I plan to leave the company and join on another company.I have not done my medial and no visa has stamped on my passport n if I leave the company will I get any ban.
Appreciate your earliest reply.
Mary,
How could you have both employment visa as well as tourist visa?
When they applied for your employment visa, the tourist visa is cancelled!
If you have a labour approval, you will face labour ban.
Hi deepak,
I am in visit visa right now but i already started working in a company (for a week) and my employment visa is already processed. I just want to know if i will get labour/ employment ban if i decided not to continue working in that company.
Emilia,
Yes, labour ban is automatic unless you meet the criteria to avoid the labour ban.
I am currently working under labor visa. just got new job offer under immigration visa and they need me after 2 weeks if ever i did not complete the notice period in the current employer can the company put me immigration ban? or If I will just give them 14 days notice them i will pay the rest is it possible or please advise the best thing to do so they can release me smoothly.
Chloe,
You should talk to your existing company to reduce the notice period. That’s the best thing.
You will not get immigration ban. What type of contract are you on?
Sir

Hi deepak ,
Iam working under limited contract in an llc company and iam in probation period , now i got job in govt company, so will i get 1 yr mol ban if i resign now ? Will the govt companies can lift it ?
Deepu,
You need to ask this with your potential employer.
There is a one year ban if you do not complete your limited contract.
I don’t think govt company can lift 1 year ban.
Hi,
I am currently working at a company however i am under a visa and insurance of my parents.
My labour card is about to expire and they require my parents details in order to renew it.
I have a limited contract.
Can i leave the company as the labour card has expired or does the contract bind me?
Will i face a ban?
Brooke,
You must serve notice period as per your contract and then cancel your labour card.
However, it is better to complete your contract and resign.
If you complete your contract, there will be no labour ban.
Hi DEEPAK

Sai,
I don’t think you will have problems.
Hi Deepak,
Good day! I just resigned from the company after a week of giving me employment visa under JAFZA but I was reporting to office in Bur Dubai. I backed out since the contract given was different from the verbal communication we have agreed. I gave my passport to them right after I reported from the exit and I want to claim it back. I just resigned this Sunday but as of now, HR is telling that I should wait for their advice since they’re finalizing the process.
Should I need to pay them the visa charges even if I have not yet signed the appointment letter and the contract? I only signed the offer letter under pressured time. After signing it, I came to senses that I was not actually happy with the mentioned terms and that I got pressured only.
I came from cancellation and now I just resigned in a new company after a week. Since I haven’t signed the contract yet, I believe they haven’t stamped the visa on my passport. Can you enlighten me of the do’s and don’t’s? I want to know if I have the right to claim my passport back and if I should pay them the whole visa charges or only some reasonable amount for the damages?
Just to give you overview why I turned the employment down:
I got cancelled from my ex-company in which I just worked less a year for a new job opportunity, that is the company I just resigned recently. I resigned from my ex-company without the offer letter in hand from the new company, trusting that the verbal communication would be bind in the written contract.
Before the day I went to exit, they gave me the offer letter that was way different from what we’ve agreed. They squeezed me why I was asking a higher salary and not telling my real previous salary, telling that they have known and checked my previous salary from my ex-company. My fault was I told them my real salary thus due to pressure and fear of being caught in dishonesty, I signed the offer. However, after hours of thinking, I planned to back out even I just signed the offer letter and passed my documents to them.
I was in the exit and my supposed boss encouraged me that everything was ok, they talked my issue over a meeting and my salary will be settled once I came back. Again, I agreed without seeing the contract yet, believing that my salary can be worked out and changed in the new contract. If not given this promise, I backed out at that same time she’s encouraging me.
However, after days of working, contract given is same as per my offer letter. Turned out, the supposed boss compromised something which was not as per their meeting. My supposed boss has different promise, HR says otherwise, as well as the directors. Now, I got confused to whom I should believe. I felt cheated over and over again, my fault, believing promises thru verbal and not making sure to be documented.
Hope for your kind response about my issue. I want to be enlightened if I have some rights to fight for in this scenario.
Thanks and regards,
Marilee
Marilee,
Since you have clearly communicated your intention to the company, there should be no problem.
Please keep all the communication written or email secure with you.
Since it is JAFZA company and you have not signed any contract, they may not be able to stamp the visa.
Dear Deepak,
Kindly please advise if there would be a ban if someone is working with FZE, the visa sponsor is Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and he/she resigns after completing 11 months.
Thank you.
Nitesh,
First of all working while on some other sponsorship is illegal.
And yes, you will face labour ban.
Hi. I have compleeted 6 month in our company. Now i got another job but the existing company ask money to cancelation. What is the role of that?

You are not required to pay any money for cancellation.

If your visit visa is still valid, I am sure your old offer can be rejected.
You can tell them that you are not interested to work.
thanks to know.. they have my degree certificate will they give it back?
Sudi,
They have to give it back?
Respected sir,

Abdul,
If you finish your contract, there will be no labour ban.
good day sir deepak, my concern was about my legal status as a new comer in uae, i entered uae on a visit visa and i arrived from my exit last 31 May 15 on a company visa and a week after i undergone medical exams resulted to fit to work last 18 June my employer told me not to report for work starting 19 June 15 on 21 June 15 I called up Labor Department to find out that my employment contract was under process for cancellation dated 20 June 15. My employer didn’t give salary, my passport or any letter of cancellation or notice. my emirates id also still on process, found out upon calling the hotline. My question Sir was about my visa, am I already overstayed? am i having a ban? what benefits and rights do i have since my employment only started from 1June to 18,2015?what about cancellation letter or notice which was not serve.the appointment given by the immigration was on 21st June 15.is there any penalties of overstaying by then? thank you very much for the good advice.more power.
Judith,
If your visa was cancelled, you have up to 30 days to exit.
You will have automatic labour ban.
If you were under probation, the company need not give any notice to you.
Penalty for overstaying beyond 30 days is AED 25 per day.
Hi Deepak,
In 2007, I had to quickly leave DXB due to unexpected turn in events. WHile leving I had some outstanding credit crd debts. After a couple of years, th bank started demanding a ransom. Eventhough I asked them for a statement, they refused to give. Anyways, last year I made enquiries and I was told that two cases were filed against me in 2 different courts in the UAE. There were judgments against me in those and through a reliable agent, I made payment of the amounts mentioned with the courts (I have receipts to prove this). Payment was made towards the end of last year. Now I would like to confirm if the travel ban is lifted because payment has been made and judgment complied with. I would like to make a trip to the UAE to visit my family and need to confirm that there are no pending issues.
Is there any way to know that before travelling? WIll the ban be automatically lifted after payment is made?
Appreciate your response.
Thanks.
MP,
You should have a clearance letter from the respective banks in this case.
The travel ban is not automatically removed and you have to contact the concerned banks for this.
Also request them to issue the clearance letter for the settlement.
hello sir i would like to ask you regarding my visa status i worked to my company within 2 years 9 months an i’m planning to resign do i have a ban?or not. thank you so much…
Rosanico,
If you complete your contract there will be no labour ban.
What if after completing 2 years limited contract i continue in the same company and then leave the company after 06 months ? with higher salary still i will get ban ?
Usman,
Yes, you will get ban.
But ultimate decision is based on MOL approval since you have already completed 1 contract.

Recently there has been news that certain free zones to get information about labour ban and may not process your employment visa.
It is better to get info from your new company before you resign.
Hi Deepak, I have worked for the agency for 1 year and 10months on an unlimited contract,recently the company where the agency sent us to wrk lost most of its contracts and decided to terminate all employees from the agency.the agency told us that we have automatic ban from labour,en it will give NOC to lift the ban if we find jobs.is this true? Coz our contract expires in august and according to the contract the remaining two months are our vaccation but the agency refused to let us go for vaccation first before terminating us.Since most of us had already booked our tickets for vaccation we decided that we will go and come back on vist visas.my other question is,will I still be able to lift the ban if it was imposed using the NOC from my previous company even when I come back on a visit visa,and find a new job?And is it possible for me to pay some money to lift the ban since it wasnt my fault,we are all so stuck and confused.
Olives,

We have a non compete clause of 6 mos in our contract, could that be it?
Please help me coz I am so confused right now.
Jon,
You must resign by giving proper notice period.
If it is a strategic position that may be true; not for general positions.
Hi Deepak,
I’d like to ask you if my company terminates me during my probation period, I’m facing a ban? Could be possible? Or the company is doing something wrong?
Thanks a lot!
TT007,
Yes, you will face labour ban. However, MOL may not issue labour ban as you were terminated.
Why dont you ask your company for NOC?

Labour ban is applicable but with NOC, you can avoid labour ban.
However, it depends on MOL approval.
sir, is there an ban if a person doesn’t want to come on employment visa issued in his name and cancelled the visa.is there will be any ban of month.
Mahtab,
If you already have labour approval, yes, labour ban is applicable.
Dear Deepak;

Hii deepak,
my wife is a working in a private hospital in dubai for 2 months….she got selected for a government hospital in Abudhabi……will there be any ban for her if she leave the present firm and join the gov sector…..?
and is their any chance the private firm will not allow her for joining the gov sector. ..? If then any labour procedures are their to help…?
plse give us some information. ….
Sanoop,
If she joins a government organisation, labour ban may not be applicable.
However, the company will know that she has a labour ban.
For more information you have to talk to the HR.
I was working in an interior company last 10months as receptionist. Since february 2015, we didnt receive our salary and last may 2015, our boss decided to released us and told us to find job. Last June 20 they already cancelled my visa. Will i get labour ban because of not completing my contract? I am in limited contract. This was the company’s problem why i am facing trouble now. Please advice me what to do sir.
Laica,
If you were terminated, the MOL may consider no issuing labour ban to you.
You need to obtain a letter of termination of contract and an NOC from your company and show it to MOL.
HI Deepak
I have a degree attested by UAE embassy . I have been working on 2 year limited contract for 8 months. the company is an LLC
I make 18k a month . the new company ( also LLC) offering me a job is giving a higher salary and better post than listed on my visa.
However can my current company impose a separate ban which i cannot remove.
Sydney,
Yes, under limited contract, the company could impose the ban.
IT is better to check with MOL directly as they would be able to provide better info!
I am not sure though if my friend is on a limited or unlimited term but he already completed a 2 years contract from his employer. He wants to renew but planning to leave as soon as he found a new job since his sala
