How do I remove an absconding case filed against me in the UAE?

You can clear it without the employer, though it takes more paperwork. When the company that filed an absconding report no longer exists, the withdrawal route obviously dies with it — but the authorities can review and cancel a report on application where the circumstances justify it, and a defunct employer is a recognised situation, not a dead end. Build a file that proves two things: that the report should not stand, and that the company is genuinely gone. For the first, gather whatever shows the real story of your departure — your cancellation papers if any, salary records, correspondence, evidence you did not simply vanish. For the second, obtain proof of the company's status: a trade licence cancellation or expiry record from the economic department, or confirmation the establishment card with MOHRE is inactive. Then apply on two fronts: to MOHRE regarding the labour-side record, and to the immigration authority (ICP, or GDRFA for Dubai files) regarding the immigration entry, attaching the evidence and explaining the employer cannot withdraw because it has ceased to exist. Your prospective employer's support letter can help show a genuine work permit is waiting. Decisions are discretionary, so presentation matters. A lawyer experienced with immigration files can prepare the application properly where the original employer no longer exists.
