What is the reason for rejecting police clearance certificate after dropping charges?
16
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?

Checking records after rejecting police clearance certificate
17
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

Can an outpass affect my Dubai police clearance for a UK visa application?



3
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.

Is it mandatory to visit the CID in person to update my records?




2
Q: Respected Advisors,
I have been involved in a few criminal cases since 2017, but all of them were cleared by this year. I have obtained release letters for all the cases from the public prosecution office through an online portal.
Recently, I also received my residence visa. After the visa process was completed, I applied for a PCC online. However, the request was rejected.
I contacted the 901 office, and they advised me to visit the CID. I arranged for a power of attorney to be granted along with all the necessary documents to update the system.
Twice I was told to come in person, but I am hesitant to do so because of my previous negative experience.
Could someone please advise me whether I must go in person or if the person holding the power of attorney can handle the process?
Thank you!

How can we claim our money back if the cheque we received have bounced for insufficient funds? 0
We received a cheque which has now bounced. We have tried for over a month and a half now to get a new cheque from the person, and every day he says the next day.
We need the money now. We have been to the police station, and they said they can not do anything as the reason the cheque bounced is "Insufficient funds."
We have been to Al Barsha - Dubai Courts, and they said there is nothing they can do about it.
We are not sure what we can do. We need the money asap to pay our kids' school fees, let alone all the interest we have lost.

Who is supposed to pay for the transfer fee, the employee or the employer? 0
Hello
I joined my new company on February 26, 2025. Upon joining the new company, I asked HR if it was free to join the company, and she said yes.
After working with them for 1 month, I experienced a salary delay, and I had to go to the office to ask why there was a delay in my salary.
That is when the HR told me she deducted my whole salary to recover the transfer fee.
Now my question is, who is supposed to pay for the transfer fee, the employee or the employer?

After 11 months of work, how many leave days is an employee entitled to? 0
Hello,
I want to inquire regarding my leave privileges. I am now 11 months in my company. How many leaves am I privileged to?
Based on Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021 regulating labour relations and its executive regulations, you are entitled to a paid weekly rest for not less than one day, as specified in the work contract or the work regulation.
The Council of Ministers may increase the weekly rest day stipulated in this article. The Decree-Law and its executive regulations also stipulate that you are entitled to an annual leave with full pay as follows:
- Thirty days for each year of your extended service.
- Two days per month in respect of any employee with more than six months and less than one year of service.
- Leave for parts of the last year of your service in case it is terminated before you use your annual leave balance.
Now my question is: do I have 22 days I can use? Can someone explain to me in detail?
Thank you!
