Important: Travel bans and asset freezes in the UAE are judicial procedures subject to the discretion of the competent court and the availability of legal conditions in each case. They cannot be taken automatically or independently โ€” they require an order from the execution judge or the competent court.

When Can These Procedures Be Requested?

Existing Final Judgment Not Yet Enforced

When the debtor refuses to pay despite a final judgment against them โ€” additional enforcement procedures including travel bans may be available, at the discretion of the execution judge.

Risk of Flight or Asset Concealment

If reliable indicators appear that the debtor intends to leave the country or conceal their assets โ€” a temporary precautionary measure may be available, subject to submitting sufficient evidence and judicial authorisation.

Freezing the Debtor's Assets

Asset freezing is an available procedure in the UAE when its conditions are met. It prevents the debtor from selling, transferring, or mortgaging their assets during the proceedings.
