How to confirm that a loan case is closed

Hi,

I got a case registered last May 2021 because of a loan from a financial institution. I just recently found out that I have a case because my mobile number registered on my EID is wrong.

I came to the police station to settle it. I did not pay any fine but the police asked me to come back after 2 weeks. I've checked my case status on the Dubai police app and my case was removed.

I am just wondering why the officer told me to come back?

My loan is less than 30k.

Am I going to pay the fine even though they removed the case on the app already?

Hello dear,

You have to go to the police station to receive proof that the case or your report has been closed, and then make sure that it has not been transferred to the public prosecution or the competent court.

Greetings,

You can contact us at any time via WhatsApp or email.

Thanks for the reply!

So they told me to come back to get basically the clearance?

How will I know if it is not transferred to the public prosecution?

What will happen if it is transferred?

Dear questioner,

If they removed it and you didn't pay the fine, it means that it is cleared.

But to be sure, you can go again to check.

I went back there but still did not get any answers or any clearance from my financial case.

My case in the app is removed.

Is there a problem if I travel as they have already removed my case on the police app?

Yes, you can travel!

Our best wishes!

Thank you for your response.

I believe it is because of the new law, right?

I am getting messages from a Tasheel debt collector threatening me with a travel ban. Is that legal?

It is not legal but you can ignore it, and try to settle the amount.

Dear Questioner,

The case was probably removed from the police station. As of January 2, 2022, a new law came into effect in the UAE, which decriminalized cases of bounced cheques.

The financial institution that you have liabilities to still file a complaint in civil court.

Thank you for your response. So if it is removed from the criminal circulars and financial status from the app it means I don't have a travel ban?

28 Apr 2022, 11:42

If the financial institution didn't proceed with the civil case and travel ban and you do not have any other restrictions, then yes.

For your peace of mind, we suggest you conduct a check on a possible travel ban/arrest warrant in the UAE.

Where can I check the possible travel ban and how can I check if they filed a civil case?

It is a paid service.
