Dear Questioner,

We can assist you in authenticating the documents here in the UAE and release the judgment in addition to the executive letter so you can use it in India.

Dear Questioner,

You'll need to have the original judgment and relevant documents translated into the official language of the enforcing court.

These documents may include witness statements, expert reports, and anything else that formed the basis of the judgment.

You'll need to apply with the appropriate court in the enforcing country to register the foreign judgment.

The specific procedures and required documents can vary depending on the jurisdiction. It will be better if you seek the assistance of a lawyer practicing in a foreign jurisdiction.

Dear Questioner,

In order for you to be able to implement the ruling in India, you must take official procedures to document the ruling from the Indian and UAE foreign embassies and stop the current implementation at the Dubai Court, and then you can implement the ruling in India as long as you know the address of the defendant.

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

Dear Questioner,

Enforcing a judgment from a Dubai court in India, specifically in Pune, can be a complex legal process due to differences in legal systems and international laws.

However, there are mechanisms available that may allow you to enforce the judgment. Here are some steps you can consider:

1. Obtain a Certified Copy of the Judgment:

Begin by obtaining a certified copy of the judgment from the Dubai court where the judgment was issued. This copy will serve as evidence of the debt owed.

2. Confirm Recognition of Foreign Judgments:

Research whether India has any agreements or treaties with the United Arab Emirates (UAE) regarding the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. Understanding the legal framework is crucial for determining the feasibility of enforcing the Dubai court judgment in India.

3. File a Lawsuit in India:

If there is no bilateral agreement for the enforcement of judgments between the UAE and India, you may need to file a lawsuit in an Indian court to recognize and enforce the Dubai court judgment. This process typically involves submitting the certified copy of the Dubai court judgment to the Indian court and initiating legal proceedings to enforce it.

4. Follow Indian Legal Procedures:

Adhere to the legal procedures and requirements of the Indian court where you file the lawsuit. This may involve hiring a local attorney in Pune who is familiar with Indian civil procedure laws and can represent your interests in court.

5. Provide Evidence and Documentation:

Present all relevant evidence and documentation to support your claim, including the certified copy of the Dubai court judgment, evidence of the debt owed, and any other relevant documents.

6. Attend Court Hearings:

Participate actively in the legal proceedings in India, including attending court hearings and complying with any orders or directives issued by the Indian court.

7. Enforce the Judgment:

If the Indian court recognizes and enforces the Dubai court judgment, you can then take legal steps to enforce the judgment against the debtor's assets in India, such as bank accounts, real estate, or other valuable assets.

It's important to note that enforcing foreign judgments can be a lengthy and challenging process, and the outcome may vary depending on various factors, including the specific laws and procedures of the countries involved.

Therefore, it's advisable to seek legal advice from qualified attorneys who specialize in international law and cross-border disputes to guide you through the process effectively.
