Amnesty for illegal residents extended to November
Lt. General Sheikh Saif bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Minister of Interior said that an additional grace period of two months has been given for those who stay illegally in the country, to leave the country. The grace period will expire on 3rd November and will not be an extension of the period stipulated by Cabinet decision No.1/32 issued on 3/6/2007.
The Minister explained that only those who have completed the legal procedures of exiting can benefit from this extension and no new processing will not be allowed after this Monday, the date of expiry of the original reprieve.

The Minister said that it was decided to facilitate legal departure of all those who stay illegally in the country. He also warned that all the concerned departments are determined to implement strict legal measures as soon as the prescribed period expires.
