How can I confirm my deportation removal approval and ensure smooth re-entry?
Q: Hello, Firstly, thanks to the legal experts here whose advice and insights were very helpful to me in the recent past. My mercy petition to remove deportation has been approved, Alhamdulillah. However, I did not receive any SMS. When I called the Dubai Public Prosecution helpline, the person informed me by checking their system that this was approved in January 2024. But my lawyers kept telling me there was no update all this time. I want to double-check if the approval is final and official, and also understand what other official steps I need to take before I can legally enter the UAE again without any issues at the airport/immigration. Should there be any official documents stating the removal of deportation? If yes, how can I obtain them? Thanks!
