An Intent to Leave Letter is a crucial document in the UAE employment landscape, required when an employee decides to voluntarily terminate their employment relationship. Under UAE Labor Law Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021, employees must provide written notice of their intention to leave, respecting the contractual notice period (typically 30-90 days). The document serves multiple purposes: it formally initiates the resignation process, provides documentary evidence of the employee's voluntary departure, and helps ensure compliance with local labor laws. This letter is particularly important in the UAE context as it often triggers various administrative processes, including visa cancellation procedures for expatriate workers and end-of-service benefit calculations. The timing and content of this document can have significant implications for both the employee's final settlements and their ability to transition to new employment within the UAE.
