As one of the most welcoming countries in the Gulf, the UAE is home to thousands of Pakistani expatriates—hardworking individuals who contribute greatly to the nation’s progress. But staying informed about local laws and regulations is just as important as working hard and living peacefully.
Recently, the Pakistani Embassy in Abu Dhabi issued a public advisory urging citizens to be extra careful following the implementation of UAE Cabinet Decision No. 42 of 2025. This new law aims to regulate digital and social media content—and the penalties are severe, with fines reaching up to AED 500,000.
Disrespecting religion, UAE leadership, or national symbols can lead to fines of AED 50,000 to AED 1,000,000.
Spreading false news, defamatory content, or unauthorized media can also result in heavy penalties.
Content creators and even individual social media users can face legal action if they violate these rules.
The embassy strongly advises all Pakistani nationals to avoid political or religious debates online, refrain from sharing unverified news, and ensure their online behavior complies with UAE laws.
🛑 How Does This Affect You?
If you’re a Pakistani living, working, or visiting the UAE, this law directly affects your:
Social media usage (Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, WhatsApp, X, etc.)
Public speech and communication
Online video creation and live streaming
Failure to comply can result in not only financial penalties but also legal consequences such as detention, deportation, or blacklisting.
