4 متاح 4 • عرض الجميعDoes switching from a DMCC company visa to a Golden Visa reset my EOSB calculation?
Q: Hi,
I have been working for a company for 5 years now, and I am eligible to apply for a Golden Visa based on my salary and designation.
My company is telling me that when I switch from a company visa to a Golden Visa, I will need to collect my complete EOSB upon canceling my visa with them and restart as a new employee with the company.
This means my EOSB will start from zero and will be calculated at 21 days instead of 30 days. Is this legally correct, or is my company telling me this to discourage me from applying for the Golden Visa?
My company is a DMCC-registered company, and my visa is a DMCC visa.
If a company refuses to give an NOC for a Golden Visa, is there anything that can be done?

نقل موظف من مركز دبي للسلع المتعددة إلى شركة مملوكة لنفس المالك
س: أنا أعمل لدى شركة تابعة لمركز دبي للسلع المتعددة. لقد انتهت صلاحية تأشيرتي بالفعل في 8 نوفمبر. أخبرتني الشركة التي أعمل بها أنهم سيقومون بنقلي إلى شركة ذات مسؤولية محدودة (مملوكة لنفس المالك). لقد راسلتهم عبر البريد الإلكتروني لتذكيرهم أنه بالإضافة إلى مكافأة نهاية الخدمة، يحق لي أيضًا الحصول على بدل تذاكر الطيران غير المدفوعة.
لكنهم أرسلوا لي خطابًا مفاده أنه سيتم نقلي من مركز دبي للسلع المتعددة إلى شركة ذات مسؤولية محدودة بسبب انتهاء صلاحية تأشيرتي. وأنه سيستمر عملي معهم بدون أي تغييرات فيما يتعلق بمكافأة نهاية الخدمة والإجازة السنوية.
هل هذا الخطاب يُعد قانونيًا؟ هل سيكون هذا الخطاب دليلاً وتأكيدًا كافيًا على أنني في نهاية الخدمة سأحصل على مستحقاتي من الشركة الأخيرة (الشركة التابعة لمركز دبي للسلع المتعددة)؟

عرض الجميعIf acquitted by the appeal court, is the travel ban and wanted status automatically removed?
Hello,
If acquitted by the appeal court, is the travel ban and wanted status automatically removed? I mean, an innocent verdict was issued by the first instance court, then it was appealed, and after that, the travel ban was there.
Now, the appeal court has issued an acquittal from all charges; so is the travel ban still there, or is it automatically removed after the judgment is issued?

عرض الجميعHow can I refund the amount of online tickets in Dubai for fraudulant misrepresentation?
Last Friday, I was booking tickets for the Miracle Garden on some Dubai tickets website, and on the OTP page, it showed 225 to be paid on my phone. The otp was added automatically, and I couldn't read the message properly. It turns out 4,225 got deducted from my account.
I immediately called the bank, and they said they can't reverse the transaction, fill out the dispute resolution form, etc. Even tho the transaction was in process today, the transfer shows complete.
Is there a way to get it back?
I registered an online complaint with the Central Bank and cybersecurity. I really need the money with my rent coming up, please guide me.

What to do if someone impersonated an employee in the company I own and got mobile lines and phones?
Someone impersonated an employee in the company I have owned since 2012 and extracted 18 mobile lines in addition to several iPhones.
I was surprised that the company cut off our landline and mobile communications on the pretext that he was monitoring a debt of 167,000 dirhams.
This person was arrested, tried, found guilty, and sentenced to deportation. However, the telecommunications company is still demanding from my company and pursuing me because of this debt that we are not to blame for.
How can this matter be resolved?

How long does it take for a bounced cheque case to be closed after a settlement?
Hello,
I had a cheque bounce case filed against me in Dubai, but I’ve now settled it with the complainant. The case has been with the Public Prosecution, and I’ve already submitted the notarized settlement documents.
It’s been 5 days since submission, and when I checked with the legal team, they couldn’t give me a clear timeline on how long it might take for the case to be withdrawn and for me to receive clearance.
Does anyone here have experience with this process? How long did it take for your case to be closed after submitting the notarized withdrawal request? Should I expect it to be done in a few days, or could it take longer?
Thanks in advance!

How can victims file a group case for fraud, bounced cheques, and misuse of credit cards?
Hello,
I would like to ask for legal advice regarding a fraud case in Abu Dhabi involving multiple victims. The suspect issued bounced cheques, received AED with a promise to exchange it into IDR but failed to deliver, misused other people’s credit cards, and operated an unlicensed travel/tour business.
Many clients paid for Umrah or vacation packages that never happened. The total loss is significant, and many victims have evidence such as WhatsApp chats, bank transfers, and bounced cheques.
We believe this involves a breach of trust and embezzlement. We would like to know if we can file a group case, what legal steps to take, and the cost of legal representation.
Thank you!
