Legal answer and supporting sources
When does the ICP residence overstay fine begin?
ICP’s residence-cancellation service specifies AED 50 per day starting after the residence permit’s applicable grace period ends, depending on its type. Confirm the actual permit category, cancellation or expiry date and recorded grace-period end before checking the calculation. This is not a single grace period for every residence, visit visa or domestic-worker case.
Legal context in the UAE
the UAE: Entry and residence rules, the permit category and the issuing authority determine the immigration review. ICP and GDRFA Dubai channels differ, and residence cancellation should be distinguished from employment-permit cancellation and settlement of employment entitlements. What cancellation, expiry and notice dates appear in the official record?
