MovingToDubai.org publishes practical relocation guidance built from firsthand experience, current official sources and transparent editorial methods.
This policy explains who creates the content, how information is researched, how personal experience is separated from documentary research and how commercial relationships are disclosed.
Who Is Responsible for the Content?
MovingToDubai.org is created and maintained by Vincent, a French expatriate who relocated to Dubai in 2026 after ten years in Canada. Vincent is responsible for the final editorial decisions, published wording and distinction between personal experience and researched information.
The Three Content Labels We Use
Firsthand experience
This label is used only when Vincent personally completed the process, used the service, lived in the location or paid the cost discussed. Examples may include his Dubai Hills tenancy, utilities, banking setup, used-car purchase and relocation planning.
Official-source research
This label is used for guides based mainly on government authorities, regulators, official service pages, published fee schedules, institutional terms or other primary documents. The guide identifies the relevant authority and, where useful, the date or version checked.
Independent documentary review
This label is used for reviews of a service that Vincent has not personally used. The article must say that clearly and base its assessment on official product information, published fees and defined comparison criteria.
Source Hierarchy
- UAE federal and Dubai government authorities, regulators and official legal or administrative portals.
- Official fee schedules, product terms, tariff documents and institutional publications.
- Firsthand records and real costs from Vincent’s relocation when directly relevant.
- Reputable secondary sources used for context, market ranges or comparison only.
Search summaries, forums, social posts and AI-generated answers are not treated as primary evidence for rules, eligibility or regulated fees.
How AI Is Used
AI tools may assist with research organisation, outlining, drafting, formatting, consistency checks and identifying questions that deserve further verification. AI is not treated as a factual source. Sensitive claims must be checked against the underlying official or primary material, and the final published content remains under human editorial responsibility.
Updates and Date Handling
- Dates are updated only when the content has been materially reviewed or changed.
- Rules, eligibility, fees and temporary promotions are dated whenever possible.
- Articles may retain stable URLs even when their year and content are updated.
- Readers should confirm time-sensitive requirements directly with the relevant authority before acting.
Legal, Medical, Tax and Financial Limits
The website provides general educational information. It does not provide personalised legal, immigration, tax, medical, investment or financial advice. Where a decision depends on personal circumstances, readers should consult the appropriate authority or a suitably qualified professional.
Commercial Independence
MovingToDubai.org sells its own digital relocation toolkit and may display advertising. Articles are not ranked or evaluated according to payment. Any affiliate link, sponsorship, gifted service or other material relationship will be disclosed close to the relevant recommendation.
