Questions & Answers
Can I file a case to raise the child maintenance from outside if my ex-husband is in Dubai?
Hi!
I divorced my ex-husband in Romania where we were married.
At that time, his salary was low because of the Covid situation and the court assigned him to pay our son's maintenance of 300 euros.
He has moved to Dubai (he was a pilot in Romania and he now works for an airline in Dubai). He makes a lot more, wouldn't tell me how much but based on what I read online about the company, he is making between 7-8000 euros.
He rarely comes back to Romania to see our son and he refuses to raise the child support amount he gives to him.
Is there anything I can do according to the UAE laws considering I am not a resident of your country?

Hello,
You can file for support here in respect of his new income, but you need to come here or grant us a power of attorney.
For further details, you can contact us on phone.

Hi,
Since you are not a resident, it could be a little difficult. Also, you can open a case for maintenance.
Where is the child currently?
Should you wish to seek legal assistance, contact us by phone.
