مطالبة شركة بريطانية بالديون المستحقة من عميل في إمارة دبي

Hi,

Can we file a civil case of debt recovery with the client in Dubai from the UK or do we have to carry recovery procedure only with Dubai court?

Hello,

The debt recovery process will have to be carried out from the relevant Dubai courts, after serving a legal notice.

Please note that if through the legal notice a settlement is reached, there will be no need to initiate a court case.

Thank you so much Hayyan.

Can you please help me with the documents needed for a legal process of debt recovery of our Dubai client?

Certainly. If you could send us an email, we can discuss this matter in detail and advise on the appropriate steps to be taken.

Is the legal notice sending to Dubai client should be in Arabic or even English will do?

Please let us know.

Ideally, legal notice should be in Arabic (as the court language is Arabic) through a notary public in Dubai courts.

We're a UK based company but one of our clients is in Dubai who did not pay for our invoices for a long time. So where should our court proceedings be, in Dubai or in the UK?

As your client is based in Dubai, therefore, the civil case for recovery should be done in Dubai.

Dear Sweta,

Thank you so much for your reply.

May I know what is the duration of serving initial legal notice we sent to them, in order to initiate case proceedings.

Once the legal notice is served, the case can be filed within a week's time (Max).

Dear Swetha,

Does the UAE law permit or allow us to claim legal and court fees from the client?

As per the UAE laws, court fees are 100% claimable, and a part of legal fees from the client.

Dear Swetha,

We want to know whether the law permits to file a case with the client in Dubai from the UK.

As per UAE laws, it should be in Dubai so that the judgement can be enforced later on.

Taking judgement is not always important, you will have to enforce it to the client so that he pays under all circumstances.

Thank you so much dear Sweta,
