Cancelled Visa and still working....

Hi reginaali,

yes you can exit the country during the grace period and then come back later with a visit visa (if your eligible for one depending on which country passport you hold)

I have heard that to apply for grace period you need to inform LMRA within the first 5 days from the notice of cancellation by the employer, someone can correct me here if i am wrong.

Thank you.

You can continue to work after cancellation of your work visa. Make sure they agree on payment terms properly for your services during this period. Not sure if you will have any legal redress if the school refuses to pay you your services during this time.

Once you exit the country upon cancellation of your work visa and related residence permit, that work visa and residence permit no longer will have any bearing on your future visits to Bahrain, unless the former employer black-lists you for any reason.

So if you are eligible for a tourist visa on arrival in Bahrain, you can exit Bahrain and return on a new tourist visa. Do make sure you will be allowed entry into UAE.

All the best with your future plans.
