Dear Questioner,

The number of steps required for the approval of a mercy request in the UAE can vary depending on specific circumstances and the authority involved.

To request mercy in the UAE, you start by submitting your formal application with supporting documents online or through a court department, possibly paying an application fee.

The authority reviews your submission for completeness, and if satisfactory, it advances to the next stage.

Otherwise, you address any deficiencies. A dedicated team or committee investigates factors like the offense severity and time served.

A final decision is then made, either approving a reduction, denying, or maintaining the original sentence.

You're officially notified in writing, and if approved, relief measures are implemented, such as sentence reduction or release from custody.

Yes. First, they make sure that the documents are complete, and then, the mercy application is submitted to the committee.
