The application of a judgment issued in the UK against a person residing in the UAE

Hi,

In order to execute a foreign judgment, many elements and conditions should exist in that foreign judgment that is issued in the UK.

If you have more information in this regard, please share it via WhatsApp in order to give you proper legal advice.

Thanks!

OK, thank you!

We are not sure what judgments the court may issue and how they will be formatted at this point.

When do you expect the judgment will be issued?

In the next 2 months. We are trying to do the due diligence to find out what a court in Dubai would need from the UK court in order to execute the judgments in Dubai.

I know the required documents already.

We have just executed an Egyptian judgment in Dubai court. Anyway, you can text me on WhatsApp when the judgment is issued or before, as you like.

Thank you!

We are trying to understand what documents a Dubai court may require from a UK court in order to request that the orders or judgements are enforced in Dubai.

For instance, does the order or judgement need to come from a UK high court or will the regional court judgements and orders carry the same weight, etc?

The most important question should be is there any mutual conventions between UK and UAE that allow both countries to execute their judgments?

There is no Agreement. However, we have been told that the First Court Instance could issue Mirror Judgements based on UK orders and then request Execution Orders. Is this realistic and possible?

Yes, you can open a execution file in UAE courts for executing the said judgment, however, you need some documents to be submitted Dubai court in order to accept this request.

You can WhatsApp me.

Just sent an invite.

You don't have Whatsapp?

I just sent invite to your WhatsApp.

Kindly contact us via phone or email for further assistance.

Thank you very much!

I think that the first step is that we need to get the orders issued. My understanding is that once we have these, we need a local lawyer to request mirror orders to be issued in Dubai and then apply for execution orders. Is that correct?

If so, how much would you estimate that this would cost? And can these costs be sought from the respondent?

Thanks!

Welcome!

In regard to your query, there are no minor or major orders; we have to file it from the first court.

The estimate shall depend upon the claimed amount in the maintenance and other related property or any other claim attached to it.

Please email us with the court documents, to provide you with a rough estimation and professional fees.
