Exiting the UAE for changing job in case of an outstanding loan
Hi,
I'm currently employed in Dubai and have a personal loan and credit card outstanding balance with a private bank in the UAE.
I used to pay my EMIs on time and it is in order. Now, I got a new job offer and wanted to move. My current company will cancel my visa and I need to exit the country then come to Dubai with the new company's visa.
My doubt is since I have a personal loan, will it be a problem in immigration at the airport while I exit the country?
I need your advice.
Thanks in advance.
Dear Questioner,
Your loan will not affect you unless you did not pay it. From your message, I understand that you have an outstanding balance with the bank.
Before you travel, I advise you to hire a lawyer to check your criminal records to make sure that your name is not blacklisted.
I do not recommend you to check your records in the police stations by yourself because if there is any criminal case filed against you, you may get arrested.
I can help you and check your criminal records on your behalf. If you need assistance, please feel free to contact me.
Regards,
Raluca Gatina
