Inspection of criminal record and arrest warrant


0
Q: I left the UAE in September 2014 but I think there is a potential that I may have an outstanding arrest warrant.
I have only copies of expired passport, visa and Emirates ID from that time but nothing new as I am not in the country, therefore never renewed the Emirates ID or visa.
What documents do you need to check if a warrant exists?
How long do these warrants last for? Would a 2014 warrant still be valid in 2018 or next year?

Removing a deportation order for possession of drugs
38
Q: Hi,
My fiance was arrested due to drug possession.
The prosecutor in Dubai dropped the charges and ordered deportation after 30 days being in jail, so he doesn't have an order for deportation from the court as he didn't go to the court.
What are the chances for him to get back to the UAE as he has a good job offer and what is the procedure to do that?
Thank you

The ability of entering GCC countries while being travel banned in the UAE
1
Q: I have brought 0.5 grams of Marijuana to Dubai last year as a tourist. I was travel banned. I could stay for 20 days holiday. When I was leaving, they put me into the database, and never ever again I can enter the UAE.
Now I want to visit Qatar. My question is, am I travel banned to all GCC countries? Like Saudi, Kuwait, Qatar, etc, or only UAE?
Thank you!

Deducting housing allowance from end of service gratuity upon resignation 0
I have resigned from my current job and my last day is May 9th after a notice period of 2 months. I was employed for 4 years.
My employer has paid me a full year housing allowance and would like to deduct the remaining months from my end of service. Is this allowed? I have not been made aware that the amount would be deducted in case I resign.
Also, I am entitled to 30 days of leave per year. Since I have resigned, they have applied a pro-rata for this year for the end of service calculation. Is this allowed?
Shouldn't I be compensated for the 30 days that I have not taken?
Thank you!
