'verlassen' and 'ausreisen' both mean that someone goes or travels away from a place. 'verlassen' is very general: you can leave a room, a house, a city, a group, or even a person. 'ausreisen' is much more specific and means to officially leave a country, often involving a passport, border, visa, or authorities. If it is only about a normal place, 'verlassen' is correct. If it is about moving from one country to another, 'ausreisen' is more precise.
