Hello, My ID will expire on 14th May. The company is blocked. I want to change my status. How can I do this?

I had a case at Al Barsha Police Station, Dubai, for one year. On 22 April, the court announced a verdict and imposed a fine of AED 5000, which I paid on the very next day and got the certificate from DPP, which I took to the Al Barsha Police station and submitted there. The police officer told me that they have removed the travel ban, and the records will be updated in other emirates within 24 hours. It's been more than 48 hours now since I applied for a clearance certificate on the MOI app, and it has turned into status "review with the concerned party." I don't have any other cases, only this case, for which I paid the penalty already. Seeking expert advice, please.

I received this email response from Sharjah Publishing Free Zone when I asked to cancel the visa for myself and an employee so that we may take up work with a new company: Dear Valued Applicant, Greetings from Sharjah Publishing City Free Zone We regret to inform you that we are currently unable to proceed with the visa cancellation for Mr. O*** F***** (Visa - Cancellation - ************) for the following reasons: 1. The company's trade license is suspended, necessitating coordination with the SPC team to address this issue. 2. The company has an existing violation, as B**** W**** M*** has exceeded their visa duration by 171 days. The company must either cancel the visa for the violator or renew it accordingly. Alternatively, late renewal or cancellation fines can be settled through an application on the portal. 3. The E-Channel has expired as of 01/06/2023, and it must be renewed before processing any visa cancellation. 4. The Establishment Card is approaching its expiry date

Seeking legal advice. I was working in the UAE for almost 12 years, and I am on a visa renewal. However, my medical is unfit due to HIV. My employer is willing to help me if there is any way to process the renewal of my visa. What can be the procedure for me to be able to stay and renew my visa and be able to seek medical treatment in the UAE?

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?

Hi, My employment visa was rejected without any reason stated. I contacted MOHRE, and they said it was rejected by ICP Abu Dhabi. I have never been to the UAE or any other country. This is my first visa application. I am from Pakistan, and I heard there is a shadow ban on some cities in Pakistan. I contacted ICP, but they said there is no ban on any nationality.

Hello, Is it okay if I travel to my home country during the probationary period? I have 7 days pending (days off and public holidays). My manager agreed to give all 7 days together, and I am planning to go see my family. Do I need to get approval for traveling?

Hello, Can my landlord evict me if he is selling the property to someone else? I am currently running a restaurant from the location.

I want to do crypto P2P trading on Binance. But I want to do it safely, so I want to open a company and do it. My monthly turnover will be around 4 million AED. I heard a lot that banks are freezing or closing business bank accounts because of this kind of activity. I want to know whether that is true or not.

I need legal advice regarding the cancellation of my work permit to join a new company. Here’s a brief overview: I have worked for a contracting company in Dubai since 2018, with my visa later transferred to Sharjah. After receiving a job offer in Dubai, I resigned, but my old employer’s attempt to cancel my work permit failed due to an OTP issue. ICP granted permission to cancel my change-of-status visa, but when my new employer applied for my permit, they found the old one still active. I raised a labor complaint with MOHRE on 21 March 2025, but it's still under process. My family’s grace period expired on 27 Mar 2025, so I sent them back to India. I’m now facing a daily fine of AED 50 for overstaying since my change of status was canceled on 13 Mar 2025. Once this is resolved, I plan to bring my family back as my son’s school reopens on 07 April 2025. I would appreciate your advice on resolving the permit cancellation and overstay fines.

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.
