Q: Sir, I need a police clearance certificate. Now, I am in Abu Dhabi but I got fine from police one time for drinking alcohol in a public place. Is there any problem to get the certificate?

Q: Hello, Around 2 years back, I was acquitted (found innocent) in a financial case in the Court of First Instance and Court of Appeal as well in Dubai. I received my passport back but I never went to the police station after that. I have changed visa and travelled without a problem. Recently, I applied for a Police Clearance Certificate and it was rejected. My brother went to the police station and they told him I have a file there. Now, I feel scared to go myself as I don't know if it's an old case I mentioned and I just need to clear it from the system or something new. Is this because I didn't submit the judgement papers to the police station? Or more likely some new case? I am interested in hiring a lawyer to help me with this. Thank you

Q: My husband is now serving a 1-year sentence in Dubai under a criminal case offence. By end of September 2018, he will finish his punishment. After that, if he applies for a Police Clearance Certificate from the embassy, will they provide it mentioning conduct is good?

Q: Dear All, I'm facing a case since 2013 but charges of breach of trust were dropped. However, I suffer to obtain a police certificate from Dubai police. I applied 4 times but still got rejected. Even though charges were dropped in 2018 but the same case still appears on Dubai police online portal. Is this the reason the Dubai police have rejected my application for PCC? I even have the file of the dropped case. What can I do in this case?

Q: I had been taken to jail in Dubai but never charged and received a fine for being drunk leaving a bar. Will I receive the police clearance? I continued to work there for years later and that was 10 years ago now? My police clearance letter is taking ages.
