# NOC Letter from Husband to Wife for a Job in the UAE: Sample to Adapt

The NOC letter from husband to wife for job applications is a short signed statement in which a husband who sponsors his wife's UAE residence says he has no objection to her taking a particular job. New employers and some free zones ask for it when the wife's visa is under her husband's sponsorship. Below is a sample to copy, a second version for a tourist visa abroad, and what the husband needs to sign it properly.

The wording is on this page to copy into your own document, so you can type your details.

Sample wording

## Sample NOC letter from husband to wife for job, UAE

Adapt this sample. Replace every square bracket and delete what does not apply. If the employer or authority gives you its own form, use their form instead.

NO OBJECTION CERTIFICATE

Date: \[date\]

To: \[name of the new employer\], \[emirate\], United Arab Emirates

I, \[husband's full name as in passport\], \[nationality\], passport number \[number\], Emirates ID number \[number\], am the husband and residence visa sponsor of \[wife's full name as in passport\], \[nationality\], passport number \[number\], Emirates ID number \[number\].

I raise no objection to my wife working with \[employer's full legal name\] as \[job title\], \[full time / part time\], from \[start date\].

I also have no objection to the employer applying for any work permit or visa change that this employment requires.

For any question about this letter, please call me on \[mobile number\] or write to \[email address\].

Signature: \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

Name: \[husband's full name\]

\[Notary's certificate and seal, if required\]

## No objection certificate from husband to wife to work: what makes it acceptable

Employers turn these letters down for small reasons. Check each point before the husband signs:

* **The employer's full legal name**, as on its trade licence, not a brand name.
* **The job title** matching the offer letter.
* **Both Emirates ID numbers** in full. The husband's must be current.
* **A start date**, or "from the date of joining" if the date is not fixed.
* **No conditions** such as "only until" a date, unless the employer asked for them.

A letter headed "No objection certificate" and one headed "No objection letter" are the same document. Use the title the employer used.

## NOC letter for wife to work: when a notary is needed

Many employers accept the letter signed by the husband with copies of his ID. A notary's seal is needed when:

* the employer or free zone asks for a notarised NOC,
* the husband is abroad and signs there, so the UAE office wants proof of who signed,
* the letter is also going to an embassy.

Where the employer only wants proof of the husband's signature, a [witnessed signature](https://privatenotarydubai.com/signature-approval-in-dubai/) does the job. At the signing, the notary confirms the husband's original ID and that he is signing freely (Federal Decree-Law No. 20 of 2022, Article 7). In Dubai the English text is paired with an Arabic translation (Dubai Law No. 4 of 2013, Article 27), which we order for you.

Sample wording

## NOC letter from husband to wife for tourist visa

Some embassies ask a married woman applying for a tourist visa to show her husband's consent or his sponsorship documents. This version replaces the job paragraphs:

Check the embassy's checklist. Some want a bank statement or salary letter with it, and some want it on the embassy's own form.

I have no objection to my wife travelling to \[country\] for tourism from \[date\] to \[date\]. I am her sponsor in the United Arab Emirates, and her residence visa remains valid for her return. \[I will cover the costs of her trip. / She will cover the costs of her trip from her own funds.\]

Questions

## Frequently asked questions

### Where can I find a NOC letter husband sample in Word?

The wording is on this page to copy into Word or any other editor. There is one sample for the job letter and one for the tourist visa letter.

### Does the NOC for wife to work in UAE need to be on letterhead?

No. A husband writes it as an individual, so plain paper is normal. A company NOC is different: see our [sponsor NOC sample](https://privatenotarydubai.com/noc-letter-to-work-in-another-company/).

### My husband is outside the UAE. What can he do?

He can sign before a notary where he is. The letter may then need attestation before a UAE employer accepts it. Ask the employer whether a scanned copy is enough for a start.

### Can the wife sign the letter for the husband?

No. The letter is his statement and must be signed by him.

### Is the same letter enough for a second job?

Usually not. The letter names one employer and one role, so a new job needs a new letter.
