Questions & Answers
If a bank has filed an execution cheques case through the Dubai Courts. Is a travel ban automatically applied?
A bank has filed an execution cheques case through the Dubai Courts due to nonpayment of a personal loan and credit card.
Is a travel ban automatically applied?
I looked on the Dubai Courts website, and it says the judge has issued a “reserved” order for my case.
Furthermore, when the bank emails, they threaten me with a travel ban. So I am assuming there is no travel ban issued (but I don’t know). I haven’t received any notice of a travel ban.
If there is a travel ban, how do I find out?
I have checked the Dubai police app, and there are no financial crimes against me.
Please advise if you know.
When you have a civil case, this leads to a travel ban automatically.
While a civil case itself doesn't automatically trigger a travel ban, the court can issue one as part of the execution proceedings.
Banks often request travel bans to ensure debtors don't leave the country before settling their debts.
If the court approves the travel ban request on execution, you will be notified through email and text message.
If you want to check the status through the court, we can conduct a court case check request.

In Dubai, travel bans may be imposed for various reasons, including financial disputes, with the Dubai Courts managing the enforcement process.
A "reserved" status on your case indicates that a final decision hasn’t been made, and threats of a travel ban from banks typically suggest none has been issued yet.
To verify if a travel ban exists, you should contact the Dubai Courts, check in person with Dubai Police, and consider consulting a lawyer familiar with UAE law, as it appears no automatic travel ban has been applied in your situation.

Dear Inquirer,
A travel ban is not automatically imposed simply because a bank has filed an execution case for unpaid loans or credit cards.
It requires a specific request by the bank and approval by the court. If the Dubai Courts website shows the case as “reserved,” it means the judge is reviewing the matter and a decision is pending.
If you have not received any official notification and there is no record on the Dubai Police app, it is possible that no travel ban has been issued yet, but it may be in process.

Dear questioner
Sometimes, the bank or debt collection agency does pass such fake information for recovery.
However, if you are defaulting on the loan or credit card payment for more than it can be serious; the Dubai Police App will be more accurate, however, for confirmation.
