How to Request Cancellation of an Absence-from-Work Complaint

Use MOHRE’s official service when an employer or worker needs an absence-from-work complaint reviewed for cancellation.

Jobs & workplace · Reviewed 26 September 2026

If you need to cancel absence from work complaint UAE, use the exact record and authority involved. The live official service is the final source for eligibility, documents, timing and any calculated charge.

Confirm the complaint exists

Obtain the complaint or work-permit details and verify the record through MOHRE. Do not rely only on a verbal statement from an employer, worker or recruiter.

Prepare the reason and proof

Collect attendance, messages, travel or medical evidence, settlement documents and any written agreement relevant to why the complaint should be cancelled. Keep the explanation factual and dated.

Choose the correct MOHRE route

The service directory lists requests to cancel absence-from-work complaints, including separate domestic-worker routes. Select the service matching the employment relationship and applicant.

Protect related deadlines

Keep the case reference and decision. Labour, immigration and court records can be separate, so confirm whether another status must also be corrected or cancelled after MOHRE’s outcome.

Use official channels only. Never share an OTP, banking password or unrestricted UAE Pass approval with an agent.
