Dear Legal Community, I am seeking advice regarding a residential tenancy contract renewal in Ras Al Khaimah. Situation: Property: Residential unit in Ras Al Khaimah. Current Annual Rent: AED 27,000. Contract Expiry: December 21st, 2025. Landlord's Proposal: Increase to AED 38,000 (approx. 41% increase). Notification Date: October 1st, 2025 (81 days before expiry). My Questions: Notice Period Validity: Is a notice of 81 days for a rent increase legally valid in Ras Al Khaimah, given the common requirement of 90 days' prior notice? Rent Increase Legality: Is a 41% rent increase permissible under RAK rental laws and the RAK Municipality Rental Index, or are there caps/guidelines? Tenant's Rights: What are my rights in this situation? Can I insist on renewing at the current rent (AED 27,000) due to the invalid notice? Dispute Resolution: What is the process for escalating this to the Ras Al Khaimah Rent?

I have a labor case against the company; it's a small company working from home. After MOHRE, I filed it in the court. 3 hearings are over already, and the other party has not shown up at any hearings and has not responded to any court notifications. They are not coming to the registered address, so the court has not been able to serve them properly either. The trade license is active, and the company is working, putting updates on LinkedIn and all that. How many more hearings might the court give before giving judgment? What can be done from my side?

Hello, Q: Is the notice of termination considered delivered and acknowledged if the employee has read it in the mail and responded to the message by asking additional questions? If the employee does not sign the notice, is it necessary to draw up a report stating their refusal to sign the notice?

Hello Sir, If I were found guilty of a misdemeanor, I would pay the fines. Would that be the reason for the rejection of my application for a police clearance certificate? And if it is, how do I go about it?

The company did not provide me with a visa after 10 months of working with them. They always promise that it is in process. Then they terminated me verbally.

Hello, I received the final decision from the court regarding the cheque execution filed. What is the next step? How can I pay on an installment basis? How can I request the excess amount regarding the 6% of the loan amount filed, since the final verdict amount was reduced? I also made a deposit to the court of 10,000 AED. How can I request it back? I appreciate your advice, and many thanks.
