ILOE insurance policy cancelled if premiums unpaid for over three months

If an employee fails to pay their premiums for a period exceeding three months from the payment due date, their insurance policy will be cancelled. Employees who fail to pay their insurance premiums for more than three months may face a Dh200 fine, in addition to having their insurance policy cancelled.

What to do
Employees must ensure ILOE premiums are paid within three months of the due date to avoid policy cancellation, Dh200 fine, and loss of unemployment insurance benefits. Check policy status and outstanding premiums at www.iloe.ae or MOHRE's ILOE Quick Pay service.

Missing a payment under the Involuntary Loss of Employment (ILOE) scheme does not result in immediate cancellation. However, leaving premiums unpaid for more than three months could result in cancellation, a Dh200 fine and loss of insurance benefits. Employees who subscribe again after cancellation must purchase a new policy rather than reactivate the cancelled certificate. If your policy is cancelled, you will no longer be covered and cannot claim unemployment compensation through it. The 12-month continuous subscription period starts again under a new policy. Employees can check their policy status and pay outstanding premiums via www.iloe.ae or through MOHRE's ILOE Quick Pay service at eservices.mohre.gov.ae/Tasheelweb/Home/ILOEQuickPay.
