Full explanation
Security approval is performed by UAE authorities and is independent of the service centre. dubaieconomycenter.com cannot influence the outcome, but protects the customer financially when the answer is negative. Other DET service centers commonly keep their service or transaction fee on a security-rejection — dubaieconomycenter.com does not.
