Planning to take a flight out of Dubai and worried about a travel ban? Check on this police app

Dubai: Are you worried that you may have a financial case filed against you, which may make it hard for you to travel to or from Dubai? Dubai Police’s online services have made it easier to find out if you have any criminal cases against you or a travel ban because of it.

Through Dubai Police’s smartphone app, website or its Smart Police Stations, individuals can check if they have any police case under their name due to financial problems.

Users can inquire about their criminal status in financial cases as well as a travel ban through:

1. The Dubai Police app - 'Dubai Police', available for Android and Apple phones.

2. The Dubai Police website – dubaipolice.gov.ae

3. Smart Police stations

This service allows the public to inquire about their criminal cases in financial cases registered in Dubai Police Stations only, in addition to any travel bans.

Steps to follow

1. Enter Dubai Police app or website and select ‘services’.

2. Click on ‘Criminal Status of Financial cases’.

3. Enter your Emirates ID number

4. Verify your identity via a one-time password (OTP) sent through an SMS on your registered mobile number.

You can then find out the details of any case that may be registered under your name.

In case of a travel ban, the service will notify you of concerned departments that you need to contact.

If you are unable to complete the process through the app, visit the nearest Smart Police Station to update your information.
