All cities, UAE

I left the UAE with a small unpaid loan and now I have to transit in Dubai. Will I be arrested?

Greetings!

I am a Philippine passport Holder.

I was working in the UAE for the past 16 years. I have a personal loan of AED 1,500 in a Bank in Abu Dhabi.

I never missed a single EMI to the bank and had good records. But I lost my job, so had to come back to Philippines.

Now after 16 years, I have a chance to go to Italy but my plane has a connected flight from Dubai to Italy. Will the UAE authorities arrest me?

Please help me with your advice, I can pay the outstanding only if I have to, but how?

I want to pay my outstanding and clear it.

The situation varies depending on the type of case and amount . Usually, there are no issues with traveling to other countries.

However, there are some cases where convicted individuals are prohibited from entering GCC countries.

Nevertheless, before transiting through Dubai airports, it is essential for you to ensure that there are no arrest warrants against you, in order to travel safely.
