How can I make sure I can enter the UAE if I paid my entire pending loan after leaving?



0
Q: Hi
I was in the UAE in 2019 and there was a 25k loan balance. For one and a half years, I did not pay the loan and moved to Qatar.
In 2023, I paid the amount in a single shot and the bank sent me an email regarding payment.
I'm coming to Dubai on a tourist visa. If the bank filed a case, will I face any problems at the airport?
I don’t know if the bank filed a case. I have all the documents regarding loan closures. Is there any problem with coming to the UAE on a tourist visa?

The public prosecution appealed a judgment to increase the fine I already paid. What do I do now? 0
Good afternoon,
Thank you for your time.
The public prosecution appealed my judgment (a fine that I satisfactorily cleared) and requested increasing the fine.
Can you please explain what happens during a criminal case appeal hearing for me as a defendant?
Will I be asked questions?
Is the hearing just for the Public Prosecution to present their appeal to the judge, and I do not need to give a response?
Thank you again for your time.

I purchased an apartment, but the previous landlord refuses to vacate. What to do? 0
Hello,
I bought an apartment, but the previous landlord is refusing to vacate it. The contract clearly states that the landlord should hand over the apartment on the day of the transfer.
Out of courtesy, I gave him three days to vacate so he could find a new place to stay, but the time has passed, and he is still refusing to vacate and hand it over.
What should I do in this case?
