The effect of a stopover in Saudi Arabia while there might be a case in the UAE
Dear Sir/Madam,
I owned an LLC company registered in Sharjah but due to financial losses. I left the UAE in June 2008 without legally closing the company. I also left my two cars at the airport and didn't inform the banks. I was paying installments for the cars.
I need to go to Turkey now for a few days and have the option to fly by Saudi airlines which will have a stopover for 3-4 hrs at Saudi airport and the second option is Qatar Airlines with a 3-4 hrs stopover at Doha airport. Just transit and connecting flight from there.
If I have cases against me in the UAE and if I am blacklisted in the UAE, will it affect my going to Saudi Arabia or Qatar?
Can I be stopped or arrested at Saudia or Qatar airports in relation to my situation in the UAE?
Please respond and help!
I also need to have a complete check of my status in the UAE as I don't know the exact situation there and if I can go to the UAE or not.
