Can I update my visa if I filed an appeal to reduce the fine in a criminal case?

I have a criminal case against me and I filed an appeal for it after the judgment because I got a fine in the judgment and I can't pay that much amount of fine.

What do I need to do now?

Recently I added my surname to my passport and I got it now. So I need to add the existing visa to my new passport and update my name with my surname on my visa and Emirates ID as well.

Do I need a police clearance for that or it can be done normally without any issues?

If there is anything related to my case or complaint can I do it with a clearance letter?

Dear C.,

Thanks for your inquiry.

Regarding the above, we would like to inform you that, it is not necessary to obtain a police clearance letter to update your name with your surname on your visa and Emirates ID.

However, you may need to provide a copy of your new passport and a letter explaining the reason for the name change. It is always best to consult with the relevant authorities or your legal representative for specific guidance in your case.

Kindly do not hesitate to contact us by email for further guidance.

Greetings
