Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
I came to the UAE from Pakistan on an employment visa, but my medical examination is still not complete. The Disease Center in Abu Dhabi keeps giving me new dates for my medical examination.
As a result, I have overstayed my visa by 48 days. I want to go home and not return.
Is it possible to leave the UAE without paying a fine?
Kindly guide me!

Returning to the UAE after leaving without paying the overstay fine

Q: Dear sir/madam,
My brother has overstayed his visit visa for over a month. We don't have any means to pay the fine and renew his visa.
We are planning to send him on outpass.
We just want to know if there will be a lifetime ban on him or if he can come back again to the UAE.
Thank you!
Regards,

Can I be convicted of driving under the influence even if the alcohol test came back negative? 0
Hello,
I was driving my car when the police stopped me at one point on the road and told me that I was driving under the influence of alcohol.
I tried hard to deny that because I had not actually consumed any alcoholic beverages that day or in the previous three days.
However, a report was filed and a case was opened, but the alcohol test report came back negative. Will I be convicted despite that?
Please answer me. It is urgent.

Can we legally claim unpaid dues for food supplies based on emails and invoices? 0
Hello,
We have an agreement with a company to supply food for their buffet on a daily basis, with invoices to be issued monthly and payment to be made every three months.
The relationship actually lasted for nine months, and payment was made for two periods. In the third period, due to disagreements between our company and the company to which the supply was made, they refused to pay, noting that the outstanding amount so far is fifty-four thousand dirhams.
Can we claim the amount, noting that the agreement is not written, but there are emails exchanged between us and invoices?
