  • Hello beautiful people!!
    As you all might now, we lived in Dubai for more than 5 years before and being back here just feels like home! There are many things that we learnt during our time spent here, both funny and unbelievable things that could actually get you in trouble if you would do them! So, we thought it was a must to share it with you all 🙌🏼
    Hope you enjoy the video!!

    Cool video guys. Good info. When I lived in Brazil I couldn’t find any poppyseeds to buy for my coleslaw or breads, very strange but apparently you can test positive for narcotics. I would love to see a video about the alcohol laws and how women are treated differently there compared to men from an expat’s perspective. I remember years ago my ‘then’ husband was considering to accept a job as a pilot with Emirates and there were some rules I had serious issues with as they would have affected me just because I was a female.

      Yes true, we had no idea when we first got to Dubai..

      20 years in prison for importing poppy seeds? 20 years in prison is almost like what happens when you commit 2nd degree murder in the USA and get convicted of that crime. So, therefore, Dubai's drug laws are very insanely harsh and severe, and only China and Singapore also have similar harsh drug laws there.

    Ok are couples allowed to hold hands and/or kiss in public? I heard it's not allowed. And thank you for explaining the laws. I think the car cleaning law should be everywhere. Then you feel more proud of where you live.

    • @jiggythibs
      @jiggythibs ปีที่แล้ว +5

      You can hold hands but not kissing in public.
      If a policeman sees you, he will generally warn you to not do it.
      In my 13 years in Dubai, I've always had good interaction with the police.

    • @enibeni2071
      @enibeni2071 ปีที่แล้ว

      The cleaning law is abusive for people who are poor, who don't own a garage, who don't have enough money for spending in cleaning services.

      @@enibeni2071 Honestly, I've never heard of anyone being fine for having a dirty car.
      You might get this fine when your registration can't be read.
      It's more against abandoned cars.
      Although, police is very discreet and you rarely have encounter with police.
      I've spent a third of my life in Dubai and got stopped by the police only twice in 13 years while being stopped by the police in France (home country) many times during random controls in less years. While my behaviour was the same.

    Hi, I have visited Dubai like twice in 2012 and 2013, I was wondering the clean car rule and car washing rule, Are those new rules or does it depend if your in the main Dubai CBD? You see when I went with my mum the first time in 2012 and 2013 the second time with my mum and sister ,we saw loads of dirty cars, I was like are there any car wash in Dubai? I even remember seeing a particular Toyota on the motorway dirty and funnily even he was unconsciously dragging a piece of card board in front of his car bumper at around 100Km/h I was in the taxi at the time, anyway I'm know Dubai is surrounded by desert and with the occasional Sand storm, your cars will get dirty at some point. Thing is if I stayed in Dubai and owned a car, I would be at the car wash everyday. As for food imports, besides Poppy seeds (Not a staple in Seychelles) are there any other particular foods that are illegal and what about if I want to bring fresh Seychelles fish into Dubai, besides the permits which I know you should have, Are there any other paperwork/formalities that you need to do before importing those items into Dubai?

    Now suppose you are a filmmaker in Dubai as a tourist, and you see two illegal drag racers floor themselves on the street and then they collide and they end up in a terrible accident there. You want the thrill of filming the accident as Emerati police come by and the fire department--with your smartphone.
    But then, something terrible happens to you. An Emerati police officer then orders you to go down on the ground, confiscate your cell phone camera and they send you to a police lockup jail for 8 hours. Then you are investigated and then you say to them, "I was not interfering with your business--I was just filming!"
    The authorities then say to you, "I will let you go, but you will be immediately deported, and once you get deported out of Dubai, YOU WILL NEVER BE WELCOME BACK!" Fortunately they give the smartphone back to you before they oust you out of the country.
    The lesson - you probably know that if you want to film in Dubai---YOU MUST GET CONSENT FIRST. However, even with consent, it is still very "haram" to film any accidents as a tourist in Dubai. If not deported, you face up to ten thousands of "dirhams" in very stiff fines and you can face a good amount of jail time. Filming accidents is generally a severe violation of not only the investigators' privacies but also the victims and perps of the accident as well. So don't film any such scenes ever in Dubai.

    I am a Project Manager and Quantity Surveyor, I can safely say I will not be welcome in Dubai. It is one of the most racist countries in the UAE. I applied for work in Dubai for a total of 40 years when there was nothing but sand there, in return I got nothing but death threats from construction companies in Dubai. I can safely say I will be put in prison for a very long time if I worked as a Project Manager/Quantity Surveyor over there, construction companies simply find my ability offensive, in their view I should be able to do nothing at all. Here is an example try Damac, one of the leading developers in Dubai. You will find they are all the same. In England, the most a black Project manager can make in a construction company is £6000 per year. The Directors will be so insulted by my ability as a Project Manager they will try to put in prison for life. In America the Directors of a typical construction company will encourage that I receive the death penalty. A Project Manager in construction is a dangerous occupation for a black person in Dubai and the United States.
