Blacklisted upon arrival in Dubai despite a clean record. What to do?
Dear Sir/Madam,
My father worked for nearly 20 years in a company. He didn't have any legal cases and recently resigned from his job.
However, when he arrived in Dubai on a visit visa, he was informed that he had been blacklisted at the airport, and was sent back to our country.
Would you mind giving any advice on why he was blacklisted?
Hi,
Yes, to know the reason for being blacklisted, we will have to first conduct due diligence.
Dear questioner,
"Blacklisted" refers to a block in the UAE immigration system.
If you would like, we can assist you in checking the status in the system. We will require a Power of Attorney from him.
It would be preferable if he has an active UAE phone number.
