Travel ban and arrest warrant check before returning to the UAE
Good afternoon,
I need a legal advice:
I have an unsettled bank debt in the UAE. I have lost my job in 2017 and I was not able to pay my instalments.
After discussing with the bank, the bank agreed not to initiate any legal action against my liabilities, in order to return to the UAE to search for a job.
I got a police clearance certifying that I’m of good conduct.
My question is :
Does this clearance guarantee that there is no arrest warrant /travel ban against me?
Note: it is mentioned on the clearance: "the department is not responsible for legal rights of others".
What does it mean?
Appreciate your response!
Thank you!
Thank you very much for your question.
Please note that obtaining a police clearance certificate does not guarantee that there is no pending travel ban against you.
Moreover, the claimant could still file a case after the issuance date of a police certificate.
Therefore, in order to provide you with legal advice in this regard, a paid consultation session with one of our lawyers who will review your case may be required.
Therefore, you may send us an email at info@hmlc.ae with your contact details, so that we could schedule your appointment accordingly.
Thank you once again and have a great day!
