To avoid penalties and deportation, people must obey the Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship, Customs and Ports Security instructions and exist the country on time so they will be able to apply for fresh visit visa or work visa of the United Arab Emirates. The violators of UAE entry or residence laws will face the legal action (“Violators of UAE entry or residency laws must leave country within 7 days after getting an exit permit,” June 12, Gulf Today website).
According to the report, the Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship, Customs and Ports Security (ICP) has set out the requirements and conditions for getting an exit permit for violators of entry and residence laws in the UAE. A 7 day-permit is issued to the violator after paying the fines incurred through ICP website, smart application, or typing offices. He must leave the country during that period.
An exit permit can also be issued for newborns in the UAE, who have not yet got residency cards, and in order to obtain the service, all fines incurred by the applicant must be paid. In the case of newborns inside the country, they must have a travel document to be able to leave it.
The United Arab Emirates authorities always keep inform expatriates and tourists regarding the country’s entry or residency laws so people will be careful about their visit and working visas in the country. I hope people will pay attention to the above mentioned detailed report and exist the country after getting exit permit and fulfil their social responsibility.
