Is it possible to travel to GCC countries when you have a life ban in the UAE?
Hi,
My name is S. F. My husband has a life ban after he got deported to India from the UAE in 2021.
Now he is trying to go to another GCC country but he is not sure if he can go or not.
Please, can anyone tell me if he can travel to other GCC countries?
In general, there is a lesser chance of restrictions to travel.
But it depends on the nature and seriousness of the offense which resulted in the travel ban and you have to be aware that the UAE and other GCC share information regarding financial delinquencies and travel bans which may affect you.

Hi
It would be difficult to ascertain if he has a ban in other Gulf countries. That can only be ascertained if you check with the country he is planning to travel to.
Dear S.,
Thanks for your inquiry.
Regarding the above, we would like to inform you that, individuals who have been deported from the country are usually subject to a lifetime ban from re-entering the UAE.
This ban can be imposed for various reasons, including criminal offenses, immigration violations, or security concerns.
In your husband's case, it is important to understand the specific reason for his deportation and the terms of his ban.
If the ban is a result of a criminal offense, it is unlikely that he will be able to travel to other GCC countries as they have a shared security database and may also enforce similar bans.
However, if the ban is due to an immigration violation, your husband may be able to travel to other GCC countries with the proper documentation and approvals from the relevant authorities.
In any case, it is important to follow the proper legal procedures and obtain the necessary approvals before attempting to travel to other GCC countries.
Violating the ban can result in serious consequences, including further bans and legal action.
