The legal viewpoint and the final objective of the child custody law in UAE is the best interests of the child. A particular facet of the child custody law in UAE are the different roles assigned to mothers and fathers. The mother and the father are accorded distinctive roles as that of ‘custodians’ and guardians’ respectively.
A guardian of a child is liable for the financial support of the child, makes important decisions about the child and usually takes care of the educational affairs and day-to-day affairs of the child. Frequently mother is granted custody pursuant to Article 156 of the UAE personal status law until 11 years of age for a boy and 13 years of age for a girl, whereas the father is always considered the guardian.
However, that said everything is dependent on the best interests of the child and the law further sets out that these circumstances can change if the court determines something else is best for the child and this viewpoint has been upheld by the UAE courts in many cases.
