How can I know why my visa got rejected for security reasons?

I worked in the UAE four years ago. I left the country in December 2018 with proper cancellation. Now, I applied for a visit visa to the UAE.

Unfortunately, my visa was rejected by the authorities due to "Security Reasons".

I checked the reason with one of my relatives living in the UAE, he said I have a security ban in immigration for the name "Hussain" while my name is M. A.

May I know how can I remove this ban?

Security bans are not due to names, and no one is informed of the reason for the ban.

You can apply for a visa after some time.

From the brief information you provided above, it appears that your previous visa applications were rejected for "security reasons" because your name matched the name of a person who was banned from entering the UAE or for any other reason.

Unfortunately, as you know, if the UAE refuses an entry visa for any reason, it is not obligated to disclose the details of its decision and no one has the right to ask for this information. This information is also not disclosed to a third party.

I think our best option is to go directly to the Immigration Service on your behalf and try to get your name off the blacklist manually in a process called 'de-similarity'.

So that we can do this and give you legal representation.
