Q: Greeting!
My name is Fazil Hussain,
I was working in the UAE for past 5 years, I have a personal loan of 80,000 from ADCB Bank in Dubai. I never missed a single EMI to the bank and had good records. But I lost my job, so had to come back to India.
I wanted to go back to Dubai and search for a job but the bank said they have blocked my visa and I cannot get a job there. I replied to the bank by email that if they block my visa then how can I find a job in Dubai and how should I pay my outstanding balance on the personal loan. I can pay my loan only if I get a job in the UAE...
Please help me with your advice, I can pay the outstanding only if I work in GCC. I can't afford to pay from India. I want to pay my outstanding and clear it.
Can the bank give me NOC to work in Dubai and pay their loan? And I want to know, is it possible if I go to Saudi Arabia and do a job and pay my installments to the bank in the UAE?

Checking a possible case or travel ban in GCC due to UAE bank debts

Q: Ms. Nikhat,
I'm in India. Please advise on an ongoing issue with me for the last 2 years and for no reason, or you can say suffering without fault.
I have issued cheques in a settlement for my cousin regarding his civil case. It was a claim of 2.2 Million with dividing the amount into 12 cheques of 20k each, and rest of the amount of AED 1.7 Million approximately in 13 months.
Where it was clearly written in the agreement that as soon my cousin got his chequebook from the bank, all my cheques get replaced with the new one.
As it took 2 months to get the new chequebook because of cousin's visa expiry, the other lawyer refused to replace my cheques and said if you want to replace they will keep my cheques as a guarantee.
So we could not replace them with new cheques. He put my cheque into the bank and I left the country in August 2016. I'm still out and only my cousin is there in the UAE arranging the fund without any success.
I lost my 12 years of Dubai experience and doing nothing. I don't know if I will face any issue in immigration for Qatar.

Unpaid loan in Dubai and its effect on working in GCC

Q: I've taken a loan of AED 65000 in 2005 and left Dubai in the same year after the job was lost.
When I approached the bank, they insisted for one-time payment which I could not afford from India.
Now, I got an offer from Oman. Can I travel to Oman with this outstanding loan in Dubai? Will I be caught in Oman?
I want to find out if I am blacklisted or a police case pending against me.
Kindly suggest.

The impact of UAE debts on travelling to GCC countries

Q: I have debt from the UAE and have a few bounced cheque cases against me. I left the UAE a few years back and have not travelled to the countries since then.
My question is if I travel to Qatar, Saudi or Kuwait, will those bounced cheque cases come to haunt me on those countries, even though I am just in transit of those countries?

The maximum notice period employers can put in the contract as per the new labor law 0
Our internal contract has a notice period of 3 months from both parties. In the new labor implementation, only one month's notice is required for less than 5 years of service.
Please advise if we can follow our internal contract since the position is very curtailed and the organization will not be able to replace the position within one month.

Annual leave salary calculation as per the new labor law 2
Dear sir/madam,
Annual leave salary calculation as per the new labor law.
Can you please clarify the correct annual leave salary rules?
Some say it is basic + HRA for the month you will take off, others say it is full salary, and somewhere I read it is basic + HRA (annual leave salary) plus the normal salary you get.
Can you please clarify?
Thanks for your valuable time and kind assistance!
