Temporary Guardinship in UAE

8 years ago

If you currently reside in the UAE as an expat, and your family is also in the country with you, then it’s absolutely critical that you understand the countries guardianship laws.

The stakes are incredibly high. Imagine, for instance, that you (the husband) should pass away here in the UAE without a last will and testament designating who will take guardianship over your children in the event of your death. In a case like this, Sharia Law will pass judgment over who receives the children. And contrary to what you might believe, this is not always the mother of the children.
