Leaving with outstanding bank dues and planning to travel back to the UAE
Hi Sir,
I need to travel to the UAE but I have some credit card dues.
Could you tell me what will happen when I am re-entering the UAE?
I lost my job and I had to exit the UAE. Now I need to go back to the UAE for job finding.
What are the consequences I will face at the UAE airport?
Dear Questioner,
I understand that you have left the UAE without paying your dues and closing your account, and now, you are planning to travel back to UAE.
Please note that possible consequences are filing criminal and civil cases against you based on the bounced cheque and outstanding loan.
In case the bank has filed a criminal case, there will be a travel ban imposed on you which may cause your arrest at the time you will reach Dubai immigration at the airport.
Possibly you will be moved to the detention center and then to the concerned police station where the bank may have filed the case.
In case you are detained, you may have to pay the fine as a criminal penalty, and afterward, the bank may initiate the civil proceedings for the recovery of the monies.
Please note that this is not advice but general information.
For more information please contact me at my email.
Thank you,
Khubaib Naeem
