Dear Customer,
Thanks for joining and trusting us, much appreciated!
We would like to inform you that according to the UAE Residence Law related with expats, if the work contract finished and you want to change the employer, you can’t do so unless you get NOC from the employer to transfer the sponsorship to another one, in addition to cancel the old visa.
So you can’t work or transfer the sponsorship without the approval from the old sponsor. Therefore, we advise you to settle the situation with the employer to cancel the visa to be able to get new visa. As after finishing the contract you may be returned to your country, so you have to settle with the employer.
If you have another question related with our section, feel free to ask us and we will answer with pleasure.
I hope my answer was helpful, please let me know if you have any follow up questions. If you feel I've answered your question already, please rate my answer from top of the page. Your feedback helps to ensure only the best experts are available to help you.
You can also ask questions of our other specialists in the areas of nutrition, therapists, IT specialists, doctors, and many more.
Kind Regards,

Welcome again!
NOC is a certificate issued by the employer, and there is no relation with the labor office.
Kind Regards,
