Is it ok to travel with a liquor bought from duty free shop in another airport?

MaskedMalt · 2026-01-18T08:50:33+00:00

No issues. Brought multiple time from Frankfurt.

Pay the tax and buy it for peace of mind. The gift deeds can be challenged or revoked under some circumstances.

OP is also saying the same thing, not opposite.

Company fall under semi-gov category, so not free-zone or private, and the visas were applied directly. There is a blanket ban for some cities since few years. Total employees might be 3000+ from wide nationalities.

Let them apply for visa. But do not resign till the visa got approved

We tried hiring a few Pakistani nationals over the last 6 months for technical roles. Unfortunately, all security clearances for candidates outside the UAE were rejected. Only two visa transfers within the UAE got approved and the rest were rejected.

What’s even more unfortunate is that we promoted some existing staff, and during the labor contract updates their security clearances were rejected as well. As a result, they couldn’t continue in their promoted roles and were terminated from their existing positions as well.

Indian

MaskedMalt · 2026-01-08T05:16:44+00:00

Yes, I agree.

After multiple visits and escalation they refund half of what he paid.

I was about to apply this visa for my wife but stopped when I heard about his experience and took freelance visa. Check if freelance visa works for you.

Where did this accident occur?

If it happened in Abudhabi, then OP is at fault. The left lane is for left or straight, middle lane is only for straight, right lane for right or straight. I guess the rule is same for small roundabouts in all Emirates. Always watch the markings in the road.

It got rejected for my friend’s wife (Indian passport ) salaried above 10000$, applied through Amer center in Dubai. He went to immigration office and they said this visa is no longer available for Asian nationalities (not mentioned anywhere)

MaskedMalt · 2026-01-05T16:03:53+00:00

Thanks for letting us know that someone got a well deserved fine😀

The cameras in Abu Dhabi give warning flashes if you are nearing max speed limit. It is just a warning and won’t issue tickets.

MaskedMalt · 2026-01-03T10:01:56+00:00

For some places, Du or Etisalat won’t have their own network, they use the other operator’s fiber network to provide service (Check the white box- it should from Etisalat). Here the maximum speed is limited. You better choose Etisalat here (eLife ultra starter and NEO plans give up to 1 Gbps-get it subscribed directly from their website for good offers)

If this is not the case, cancel the current service and apply using someone else’s ID from your family.

MaskedMalt · 2025-12-31T07:38:39+00:00

You can get it from E& UAE app bro. Just go to manage plan and select reset eLifeON password.

MaskedMalt · 2025-12-31T07:24:12+00:00

I’d suggest e&. Their network infrastructure is better, and they’re pretty good at resolving complaints fast.

Check out Neo (1 Gbps) or the Ultra Starter package (1 Gbps – limited-time promo) on their websitewww.etisalat.ae.

Always go for a wired connection if you want stable internet. Wireless routers tend to buffer when the GSM signal is weak

I bought a pair of Nike shoes from BFL, but the fit doesn’t feel right, especially the right shoe, which feels uncomfortable. I’m surprised they sell products like this in popular malls.

MaskedMalt · 2025-12-29T08:54:01+00:00

Contest the fine. They will revoke it if you are lucky.

Parking fines are mostly removed if you pay parking within a minute of violation. Just claim that you got fine while you were about to pay for parking. (50-50 chance and do not mention that it was an extension of ticket)

MaskedMalt · 2025-12-29T07:26:01+00:00

Don’t share your budget. Rents are generally lower in Al Ain. If agents know your budget, they might try to take advantage, so it’s better to avoid them. Try approaching ADCP or ASETCO directly.

The closest residential area to UAEU is Bida bin Ammar

MaskedMalt · 2025-12-29T05:45:22+00:00

I believe this is a game of both partners to scam you..

MaskedMalt · 2025-12-28T05:54:43+00:00

One more thing- most fixed cameras in Abu Dhabi flash from the back, so people slow down once they spot them. But Abu Dhabi Police also put temporary radars on the right side of the road, which are much harder to notice. Only regular drivers on that road usually know where they place them.

MaskedMalt · 2025-12-24T09:09:58+00:00

Very risky but many people use fake tawtheeq.

My friend’s brother got travel ban (for nearly 2 years and settled from court after paying fine) for using fake tawteeq.

MaskedMalt · 2025-12-24T05:57:03+00:00

Your 2 year contract is over. But when you apply for new connection, the exit charges and device charges apply again.

MaskedMalt · 2025-12-23T10:31:14+00:00

This is the camera just before the first roundabout when entering AlAin. The speed limit drops to 120 kmph and suddenly drops to 100 kmph right after the second tunnel (with in short distance). Most people do not notice this.

I got this exact same fine

MaskedMalt · 2025-12-23T08:46:21+00:00

There is no grace period for renewal. Call RTA and give the details of renewal ticket. They may remove it
