I have a question regarding transfer or sponsorship/change of job. My question is, if I come to the UAE on a work visa and do not wish to work with my sponsor, can I find a new job and change my sponsorship immediately after receiving my first residency card?

My current sponsor will give me a No Objection Certificate so there is no problem from his side because he is my cousin. So, can I immediately resign from him and find a new job?

Hello Shah,

These are all legal advices based on policies of different sectors and emirates. There are free zones with different policies and different emirates with varying regulations. If you browse our threads, you will come across UAE policies and types of contracts. I am sure you will find some answers in them.

Cheers,
Sajid
