Filing a Cheque Bounce Case in Dubai / UAE ?
UAE allows the individuals or companies
possessing dishonored bank cheques to file
criminal cases against the issuers of the
cheques, since dishonor of a cheque in the UAE is
considered as a criminal offence. This is in
congruence with Article 401 of Federal Law No.
(3) of 1987 of Penal Code of UAE which
states There are two course of actions in which
a person or company can file a police complaint
against a bounced cheque in Dubai. Visiting a
police station is the first course of action and
the second course of action is filing the police
complaint online. Lets explore the two options
below. A criminal complaint against the bounced
cheque could be filed either in the place where
it was deposited for collection by its
beneficiary or at the place where the beneficiary
of the cheque received it from its issuer. If the
returned cheque is deposited in the beneficiarys
bank located in the emirates of Dubai, then the
creditor could file a criminal complaint at the
police station having jurisdiction in emirates of
Dubai, based on the jurisdiction you have to file
in respective police station in the emirates.

• In Dubai, without visiting a police station one
  can initially file a criminal complaint against a
  bounced cheque. This is made possible by using
  the Dubai Police mobile application. The ensuing
  is a brief guideline on filing the complaint on
  the mobile application.
• Choose the Report Bounced Cheques, you are then
  redirected to a page where you are required to
  fill in the subsequent details
• Details of the Applicant (Emirates ID number and
  Email address)
• Details of the Cheque (Bank Name, Account Number
  and Cheque Number)
• Police Station (A branch to be chosen from the
  list of options given)
• You are required to upload an image of the
  bounced cheque along with a brief of your
  complaint. Once the above process is completed,
  you receive a confirmation from Dubai Police and
  the police also notify you on when to visit the
  police station.
• Upon your visit to the station, the police
  require you the documents, like the original
  cheque, the return memo from the bank and proof
  of identity.
