Document background
A Cross Border Permission Letter is essential in today's globalized business environment, particularly within the UAE's international business hub context. This document is required when UAE-based employees need to work temporarily in other jurisdictions while maintaining their UAE employment status. It serves as formal authorization from the UAE employer, ensuring compliance with local labor laws and immigration requirements. The letter typically details the scope of permitted activities, duration, geographical coverage, and maintains the employer's duty of care. It's particularly important in the UAE due to strict labor law requirements and the need to maintain clear documentation for both immigration and employment purposes. This document helps protect both employer and employee interests while facilitating necessary business operations across borders.
