Guarantee Deposit Refund UAE
Guarantee Deposit Refund UAE support from Al Hadaf Al Masi helps UAE residents and businesses understand the correct authority, documents, current fees and procedural order before taking action. We review the case so linked immigration, legal or company records are handled in the right sequence.
Guarantee Deposit Refund UAE – Overview
Guarantee Deposit Refund UAE is the broader immigration refund process for eligible financial guarantees collected with visa or residence-related applications. ICP has a dedicated service for refunding financial guarantees from approved applications and currently charges AED 25 with a stated completion time of 2 days. Some visa categories also expressly state that the guarantee becomes refundable after visa cancellation or the beneficiary’s exit, provided the required conditions are met and no disqualifying residency violation remains.
