The school generally has to grant you permission to leave the country legally and your visa must be stamped thusly in order to leave. Each time you leave the country, your school is notified (after all, they have paid for your visa and have sponsored you for your position.) Additionally, your banks and utility companies can make it difficult to leave. You may have moved out of the apt, but you may not have gotten clearance from utility companies. This can become problematical.

Along with Helen, I have never heard of education employers getting involved with normal departures or requiring any kind of stamp. I've never heard of an exit visa being required for the UAE. If this is something new with ADEC contracts, it is the first that has been heard of it here.
And definitely landlords and/or utility companies would have no input.
I wonder if this post is not confusing final exit procedures when you officially depart from any employer at the end of the contract. It still doesn't require an "exit visa" but requires you to have proven to your employer that all bill are paid, and your work/residence visa will be cancelled as you depart at the airport. Naturally if they have advanced you significant amounts of money for settling in and paying rent for you in advance, you should expect to have to reimburse it to them for part of it if you have not completed the contract.

The motivation for completing the final check list is to get your end of service payment.
No tickee, no payee. |

I've just accepted a job with ADEC through TeachAway - Currently waiting for my visa/flight information and should be out there in the next few weeks. So far, I've been very impressed with them and really can't fault the work they've done. Contracts are for 2 years, however the contract includes something like "The employee may terminate the contract in accordance with the period of notice, on the understanding that the termination will occur at the end of the year". So while it's not ideal, if you really couldn't cope with a second year, then I guess that could be a way out?
Either way, I'd definitely recommend applying with them (They are recruiting now with interviews in Jan/Feb for an August/September start). |
Thank you! please keep us updated
