Entering the UAE with a nationality passport different from the banned one

Dear sir/madam,

I have dual citizenship and I’m currently banned from entering the UAE because of a legal case from my employer made against me.

Can I still enter without a problem with my other nationality passport?

Dear questioner,

The UAE has biometric scanners at the immigration section of the airport. Even if you enter with your other passport, due to the biometric scanners, it will show on the system whether you have a travel ban or not.

Kind regards,
