Q: Dear All, I'm facing a case since 2013 but charges of breach of trust were dropped. However, I suffer to obtain a police certificate from Dubai police. I applied 4 times but still got rejected. Even though charges were dropped in 2018 but the same case still appears on Dubai police online portal. Is this the reason the Dubai police have rejected my application for PCC? I even have the file of the dropped case. What can I do in this case?

Q: Hi, I am outside of the UAE. I had a previous case for a bounced cheque with a bank in Dubai, going in front of the judge I was ordered to pay a fine, which I did and the case was cleared and I left the UAE. I have applied for an online police clearance certificate but it was rejected, does this mean there is an open case or due to the old case?

Q: Hello, Around 2 years back, I was acquitted (found innocent) in a financial case in the Court of First Instance and Court of Appeal as well in Dubai. I received my passport back but I never went to the police station after that. I have changed visa and travelled without a problem. Recently, I applied for a Police Clearance Certificate and it was rejected. My brother went to the police station and they told him I have a file there. Now, I feel scared to go myself as I don't know if it's an old case I mentioned and I just need to clear it from the system or something new. Is this because I didn't submit the judgement papers to the police station? Or more likely some new case? I am interested in hiring a lawyer to help me with this. Thank you

Q: My Dubai Police Clearance Certificate was canceled. I do not have any financial issues with the bank or company. I used my Emirates ID which expired in 2017. Now they are not telling me the reason for the PCC cancellation.

Q: Good evening, everyone! I left Dubai in January 2023, and I am currently in the process of applying for a UK visa. I was asked to provide a Dubai police clearance certificate, which I did. However, I recently found out that the Dubai police clearance certificate I provided has been canceled. I have no prior cases against me in Dubai, so I'm wondering if the cancellation is related to the outpass I obtained to leave the country. Can an outpass prevent me from obtaining a Dubai police clearance certificate? I only have a few days left to respond to UKvi.

Q: Hello, Background I was unfortunately involved in a fraud case in the RAK court in 2020. In the First Court, I was sentenced to 4 months in jail. In the Second Court, I was sentenced to 6 months in jail. In the Supreme Court, the case was returned to the Second Court. In the Court of Revision, I was declared innocent, and I received a clearance certificate from the RAK Court confirming my innocence. A few days ago, I went to a police station in Abu Dhabi to request a police clearance certificate, but it was rejected. According to the police officer, they could only see the outcomes of the First and Second Courts and asked me to attend a rehabilitation class. The final judgment was not loaded into the system. Action I uploaded the judgments of the Supreme Court and the Court of Revision through the RAK Government Portal and requested a stop search from the public prosecution. I received an SMS confirming it was completed successfully. Problem However, in the police system, the judgments of the Supreme Court and the Court of Revision are still not reflected. What should I do?

Q: Good morning, lawyers, I have a situation. I was called for questioning as the case is still under investigation, and I later realized they issued a travel ban against me. However, I need a police clearance certificate. Will I be able to obtain the police clearance, or will it be denied because of the travel ban?
