The Resignation Termination Letter is a crucial document in UAE employment relationships, designed to formally initiate and document an employee's voluntary departure from their position. This document is required under UAE Labor Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021) and serves multiple purposes: it officially communicates the employee's intention to resign, confirms the notice period as per their employment contract, and establishes a framework for the termination process. The letter should be used whenever an employee decides to voluntarily terminate their employment and needs to provide formal written notice to their employer. It typically includes essential information such as the resignation date, notice period, last working day, handover commitments, and requests for final settlements and end-of-service benefits. For expatriate employees, it also triggers visa-related procedures. The document ensures compliance with UAE labor regulations while maintaining professional standards and protecting both parties' interests during the termination process.
