The court of first instance granted me full custody of my child. Can I keep his passport?

My dear.

If you obtain custody of your child, you have the right to keep all the documents that belong to him, such as the passport, birth certificate, and identity card.

But this is done by filing a lawsuit in court, and the decision must be issued by the judge.

If anything else is required, don’t hesitate to contact us via email or call our offices in Dubai or Sharjah.
