What is the execution court in the UAE and how do I enforce a labour judgment?

A UAE labour judgment may be appealable within a short, strict deadline set by law that depends on the judgment's type and value; missing that window typically makes it final. Once final, if the employer still does not pay, you enforce through the execution court (often called Tanfeedh): open an execution file in the same emirate, attaching the judgment, your identification and case details. The execution judge can direct payment and attach the employer's bank accounts or assets; enforcement timelines depend on the employer's assets and cooperation. Confirm current deadlines and procedures with the relevant emirate's courts. Full step-by-step guide: Enforcing judgments through the UAE execution court.
