Dear Questioner,

Thanks for your inquiry!

According to UAE law, a person who has been convicted of a misdemeanor can apply for a police clearance certificate after one year from the date of completing the sentence and obtaining a rehabilitation certificate.

This certificate is issued by the court and states that the person has been rehabilitated and is no longer considered a threat to society.

In your case, it seems that you have completed all the necessary steps and have obtained the rehabilitation certificate. However, you have not received a response to your name-clearing request from the Dubai police.

In such situations, it is best to follow up with the Dubai police and inquire about the status of your request.

You can do this by visiting the police station in person or by contacting them through their official website or helpline.

It is also advisable to keep a record of all your communication with the police, including the dates and details of your follow-up.

If you do not receive a response or satisfactory resolution from the Dubai police, you can seek legal assistance from us as a lawyer who specializes in UAE law.

We can help you understand your rights and options and guide you on the best course of action to resolve the issue.

It is important to note that the process of obtaining a police clearance certificate may vary depending on the specific circumstances of each case.

Therefore, do not hesitate to contact us via phone or email for any further inquiries.
