Hi everyone, I’m looking for some advice regarding my UAE immigration status.
On June 10, 2026, I exited the UAE with an outpass. I had an overstaying fine of around AED 4,000, which I couldn’t pay before leaving.
The situation happened because my company had changed my visa/status, but they didn’t complete the visa stamping process. Because of this, my status remained incomplete and I ended up accumulating an overstay fine.
I eventually had to leave the country using an outpass without paying the fine.
Now I’m trying to understand:
Does exiting with an outpass automatically mean I have a UAE entry ban?
If I do have a ban, how long is it usually for?
Is there any way to check my current ban/immigration status from India?
Would the unpaid AED 4,000 fine affect my ability to get a new UAE visa in the future?
If anyone has gone through a similar situation, especially after leaving with an outpass, I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience.
Thanks in advance.

I was working for a company in the UAE after my status was changed for an employment visa. However, the company never stamped my residence visa, did not cancel my work permit, and also failed to pay my salary for the past 3 months.

I have already filed a complaint with MOHRE regarding this issue. When I recently checked my immigration status, I found that there is an overstay fine of AED 3,300 for 67 days.

I would like to know whether I will still be required to pay this fine if my work permit/visa is cancelled through MOHRE and I exit the country. Since the delay and non-processing were caused by the company, I request clarification on whether the fine can be waived or reduced in my case.
