Q: I have moved to Canada permanently from Dubai. I have a car back in Dubai which is under my name and I need to transfer the ownership to my brother's name.
The car has no outstanding fees or payments. Its insurance and Mulkiya (license) are still valid.

What do you need to sell or claim an asset of a family member living abroad?
0
Q: Hi,
I want to sell my father's car because he can't come to the UAE due to COVID-19 situation and visa issues for Pakistan. I have tried to get a power of attorney from Pakistan. It just keeps delaying.
I don't know what's the issue there but till now it's not happening. For attestation, the authorities are asking to send the documents through TCS (A Pakistan Courier company).
Due to which, I am looking if there could be any other way here in the UAE by which I could be able to sell or gain ownership for my father's asset.
If there is any other way through I which can get ownership or authorization, please guide me.
I would really appreciate it.
Thank you.

Do I have to pay a penalty if terminated after completing my contract period? 0
Sir,
As per my contract period, they mentioned that if I leave the company before 1 year, I have to pay 5000 dirhams. But I have already completed more than 1 year and 3 months.
The company has given me a warning letter saying my work performance is low, and if I continue like this, they will terminate me. They didn't mention any charges, but they mentioned in the letter a top penalty procedure.
So I need to know whether I have to pay them any charges or not.

How can I lift an immigration ban to be able to process my new emplyment visa? 0
Hi Sir,
I am S. and I am facing a one-year labour ban (as per my knowledge, and the same is mentioned in the cancellation paper too).
Now I have a new offer with [-----] company in a free zone, but things were not processed because of this ban. They asked me for the immigration clearance.
How can I clear this?
My previous contract was under a limited term, so even the salary basis is not helping me.
From other sites, I came to know it is possible, but I still have no idea how.
Can you suggest a solution?

Can the school refuse to issue NOC to me after they terminated my employment contract? 0
I am writing to raise a concern regarding the denial of a No Objection Certificate (NOC) by [----] School, Abu Dhabi, where I am currently employed as a Humanities Teacher.
Although the school has officially discontinued my contract effective July 7, 2025, and I have not submitted a resignation, they are now refusing to issue an NOC.
This is preventing me from accepting an opportunity with another charter school and is obstructing my right to secure alternate employment within the sector.
As per my understanding from ADEK and MoHRE guidelines, an NOC cannot be denied when:
- There is no non-compete clause in the contract.
- The employee has not breached any contractual obligations, and
- The termination was employer-initiated without a valid cause.
I kindly request your guidance and support in addressing this issue so I may proceed with my job application process without unnecessary obstruction.
Sincerely,
N.

Can the collection agencies pursue a legal action against me in my country for unpaid debts in the UAE? 0
Dear Sir
One of my friends took a loan and credit cards from various banks and ran away to Pakistan as he lost his job.
Can anyone chase him in Pakistan?
Actually, he was a victim of fraud, and the person who did this is in jail, and the other ran to Pakistan.
My friend made civil cases and won both. One is in jail for the first case, and the other ran to Pakistan. That's why he defaulted on payment.
