Ireland has a regular dialogue with the UAE on a broad range of bilateral issues, including policing and justice co-operation.

Ireland does not currently have an extradition treaty with the United Arab Emirates. Any decision on whether to begin negotiations on a treaty would be taken based on a recommendation by the Department of Justice, which oversees Ireland’s policy on extradition.
