Frequently Asked Questions
Is a contract made here legally valid on its own?
No. UAE employment contracts must be registered electronically with MOHRE (or the free zone equivalent) in the standard format, in Arabic with parallel translations permitted. This generator produces a solid draft covering the mandatory clauses so you know what needs to go in, but it doesn't replace MOHRE registration.
Are unlimited-term contracts still allowed in the UAE?
No — since the 2022 labour law reform, only limited-term (fixed-term) contracts are issued. Older unlimited contracts that predate the reform continue under their original terms unless converted.
What's the maximum probation period I can put in the contract?
Six months from the start date, and this cannot be extended under any circumstances. Use the Probation Period Checker to validate a specific date and length.
What notice period should the contract state?
Anywhere between 30 and 90 days, as agreed between employer and employee — it must be the same length for both sides. A common default is 30 or 60 days.
Is my data saved anywhere?
