Our retelling · details in the original publication
The Bangladesh Embassy in Abu Dhabi has issued an official statement addressing growing concerns among the expat community. Numerous Bangladeshi nationals legally residing and working in the UAE have reported a disturbing issue: while on vacation or traveling outside the Emirates, their visas were suddenly cancelled without prior notice or explanation. This creates significant risks for individuals who are now unable to return to their jobs and families, potentially disrupting their livelihood.
Diplomats stated that they have taken the matter under their direct control and are actively working with relevant UAE authorities through diplomatic channels. The primary objective is to determine the true nature of these cancellations. Authorities are investigating whether this is due to a serious technical glitch in the immigration system or if there are other administrative reasons involved.
The embassy strongly urges all citizens to remain calm and refrain from spreading unverified rumors on social media to avoid causing panic. It is recommended to follow news exclusively through the embassy's official communication channels. If you are affected by this issue, it is important to report it to the embassy to document the case and seek assistance.
