س: مرحبًا، نحن شركة خدمات بترولية مسجلة خارج دولة الإمارات. إننا نتعامل مع شركة مقرها الإمارات ولكنهم يستمرون في تأجيل موعد شحن طلبنا. ونتيجةً لذلك، ندفع غرامات على أساس يومي بسبب التأخير وفقًا لعقدنا مع عملائنا. هل يمكننا رفع قضية ضد شركة مقرها دولة الإمارات؟ هل هناك جهة حكومية تعمل على تسوية النزاعات التجارية بين الشركات المحلية والدولية قبل اللجوء إلى التقاضي؟

Q: We are a software company who have signed a contract with a client. The contract expired in Nov. 2015. We continued to work with the client on the project. We received 5 payments out of 7 payments that were due. Each payment was linked to a milestone in the project. Now the client claims the software solution is not up to the quality they want and they want to sue us for damages. In the contract, we have a clause that says they can sue for a maximum of 50% of the money they paid us. However, each of the 5 payments they made were linked to a milestone of the project contract and the payments that were made were approved by their managers who now claim that the software quality has an issue. Are they entitled to sue for damages? How can we best protect ourselves?

Q: We had rented out 2 x ISO tank containers to a local company in Dubai, who used it for transportation and storage of White Spirit and/or Ethanol. The rent rate was US$13/tank/day and they stopped paying for many months. After repeated emails, and constant pressure and personal visits, they returned the ISO tanks in damaged condition. Now the total unpaid rent, transportation cost and damage cost, is approx. AED 25,000 total. What is my legal remedy? What are my options? Will it be worth it to litigate? What is your advice? Thanks.

Q: Dear Sir/Madam, A person came to buy my car. I gave him the car for a test drive, but he did not return it. The documents he gave me were for his cousin, who is in Pakistan.

نظرًا لأن العلاقات الثنائية بين دولة الهند ودولة الإمارات العربية المتحدة شهدت تطورًا سريعًا في الآونة الأخيرة، ومن أجل مواصلة تعزيز شراكتهما الإستراتيجية، أعلنت الحكومة المركزية لدولة الهند في 17 يناير 2020 أن دولة الإمارات العربية المتحدة تخضع لمبدأ المعاملة بالمثل بموجب المادة 44 (أ) من قانون الإجراءات المدنية لعام 1908.

ضمن إطار التعاون القضائي بين الهند والإمارات العربية المتحدة (الإمارات)، أبرم البلــَـدان في أكتوبر 1999 اتفاقية بشأن التعاون القضائي والقانوني في المسائل المدنية والتجارية لتبليغ الاستدعاءات والوثائق القضائية واللجان وتنفيذ الأحكام وقرارات التحكيم (اتفاقية عام 1999).

The law promulgates UAE Civil Procedures Code (Civil Procedure Law) which governs civil procedures in the United Arab Emirates, including the prosecution before the courts, litigation and execution.

This Law applies to merchants, as well as to all acts of commerce carried out in the UAE by any person even though he be not a trader. Commercial matters regarding which specific Federal laws are issued shall be subject to the provisions of such laws, and to the provisions hereof which do not contradict with said laws.
