Protecting Your Child’s Residency in the UAE
In the midst of custody disputes or matrimonial proceedings, the risk of a child being removed from the UAE without consent is a serious concern. A Travel Ban Application is a proactive legal measure filed in the UAE Personal Status Courts to ensure the child remains within the jurisdiction until a final judgment is reached.
Legal Framework and Process
Under UAE law, the guardian or the custodian can apply for an emergency order to place a ban on the child's passport. This prevents the child from exiting through any airport or border point in the Emirates.
- Immediate filing with the Urgent Matters Judge.
- Coordination with immigration authorities.
- Legal representation during custody hearings.
