Should I file a case for a bounced cheque within 6 months of the issue date?

Greetings.

After the cheque is stamped by the bank with the phrase “The cheque was returned due to insufficient funds or any other reason,” an execution or criminal report is registered.

Hello,

In the UAE, a criminal complaint for a bounced cheque can generally be filed within 6 months from the date the cheque was dishonored.

This timeframe is based on the date of the cheque's bounce rather than the issue date.

Thank you for your inquiry regarding the bounced check.

In Dubai, for bounced cheques, it's important to file a case within six months from the date the cheque was issued. This is to ensure your rights are protected under the UAE Commercial Transactions Law.

However, depending on the specific circumstances of your case, there may be additional legal actions or remedies that can be pursued even after the six-month period. It’s advisable to act quickly to avoid any complications.

Feel free to reach out to me directly on WhatsApp or call me to discuss your case in detail and explore the best course of action.

You can also email me. I’ll be happy to assist you further.

Kind regards,

Suhail Rana

If you've got a rejection letter, you can get a payment order from the court and this period is not coming under the six-month validity time.
