Hi Sahik,

From what I understand, under UAE labour law, employers may not ask for repayment of visa or recruitment costs from employees under any circumstances.

The laws regarding the notice period for resigning during a probation period are a bit unclear, but the standard is one months' notice - if notice periods aren't mentioned in your contract, I would assume one months' notice to be safe.
