Q: Hi. I want to know something. Actually, my father took a loan from different banks in Dubai and he couldn't clear all of them. So he came back to the home country. So my question is how he can be removed from the blacklist? Does he have to pay all the amount? And what if he does not have that much amount? Please guide me. Thanks

Q: Hello, I have left the UAE 1 year ago and I had an outstanding loan in CBD. I would like to know if and how much I should cover. If I do, will be the police case removed? Will I be able to travel to GCC countries again? Thank you

Q: Hello, I left the UAE more than a year ago after losing my job and leaving behind a pending amount of AED 400K from a personal loan at a bank (a police case and a ban is already in place), of course. Now, the ACC is showing a higher amount due to fees. However, I was told that banks might consider settling the matter for lower amounts of the pending. Therefore, I am wondering if someone has experience in negotiating these bank debts in the UAE, and if that information/possibility is true. Thank you in advance for your time and support!

Q: I requested the bank to restructure the outstanding loan for an extended period, with the remaining amount being AED 150,000. The bank informed me that the new term would be 48 months, but I later received an agreement for 72 months. Upon noticing the discrepancy, I declined the offer, and as a result of the dispute, the bank filed a criminal case against me. I paid the fine and resolved the issue with the court. Now, after 7 years, they have initiated a cheque execution case for AED 300,000 with a travel ban. I have an email from the bank stating that the liability is only after the case has been filed AED 150,000. The signature on the cheque is mine, the rest of the details were filled in by the bank, including the total amount of the monthly dues for 72 months. How can I proceed in this case? I intend to request an installment option for the original amount of AED 150,000, without any applicable interest discounts as mentioned on the cheque and the case value.

Q: Dear Sir/Madam, I have a cheque bounce civil case in Dubai due to an unpaid loan from a bank. This same bank had filed a case two years ago, but the case was removed due to a new rule. Now, they have filed a new case with a travel ban as well. I am required to pay the entire amount of 100,000 AED in one shot or installments to the bank to settle the case as per the court. Can I file an objection or contest this judgment? If so, what will be the most likely outcome?

With the introduction of the new procedures for obtaining a power of attorney (POA) remotely in the UAE, after it was mandatory to appear in person in front of the notary public as a global rule to ensure the identity and intention of the person requesting a POA, we put between your hands this brief guide for how you get it done.
