I'm pregnant but not married here in uae. And my...

We would like to inform you that if you made a sexual intercourse and a pregnancy occurred, and the child's lineage was not known yet, the mother can prove the lineage to the UAE judiciary.

 Paternity is established either through the concluded marriage contract if there is a customary marriage contract, evidence, or by available scientific methods. 

After the case is filed, all methods will be taken to ensure that the child is related to his father. You can deny the paternity, and in this case a medical examination will be conducted to prove the lineage by a committee consisting of 3 or 5 doctors
