Therefore, you do not have to come all the way to cancel your visa as it is automatically cancelled if you stayed outside the UAE for more than 6 months.

Emirates ID: Residents who intend to cancel their UAE residence visa for the purpose of leaving the country for good or for the purpose of changing jobs are required to hand over their ID cards to the respective General Directorate for Residency and Foreigners Affairs.

The respective General Directorate for Residency and Foreigners Affairs will hand over the returned ID card to Emirates Identity Authority, which had issued the card.
