I had defaulted on bank loans and left Dubai. How to check if I have a travel ban and cases?
I had defaulted on Personal/CC loans and had to leave Dubai in 2020 due to the COVID-19 situation and was unable to find a job after trying hard.
Can someone please advise if there is a DUBAI IMMIGRATION BAN for default upon arrival at DXB airport?
I have checked on the Dubai police app and with Local Typing Centers in Dubai and there is no financial case registered on my Emirates ID.
But some say I will be caught upon arrival at Dubai Airport as I have defaulted for 2 years on the payment of EMIs and have outstanding du bills as well.
Please advise the best possible solution.
Highly appreciate your time.
Dear Querist,
To answer your question, unfortunately, you might be detained at the airport due to nonpayment of your unpaid debts in the UAE.
However, to find out your current legal status in the UAE we can help you with a status check and can provide you the updated information on your legal status in the system.
Also, may I know what is your total outstanding balance and with which bank?
Inquire about the existence of a travel ban on your name.
If there is not, you will not be stopped at the airport and you can come.

Yes, it's better you do a check. You can find on Legal Advice ME website the prices from lawyers to book it. It requires making a Power of Attorney at additional charges.
Dear Questioner,
We can assist you legally to check your criminal records in the UAE if your name is banned in relation to any financial case or not.
We have to get Power of Attorney from you for us to be able to represent you before the legal authorities.
Once we get the POA, we will check your criminal records over the UAE and provide you with case details, if any, or let you know that your name is clear.
Please note that our professional legal fees will be USD 320 and the mission will take 3-4 working days.
The Notary legal expenses to notarize the POA remotely, draft it in bilingual, and stamp it with a legal translation stamp will cost you USD 140.
Shall you have any further inquiries please do not hesitate to contact us by phone or email.
Thanks
