2021 saw the highest level of divorce cases registered in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) since 2009. Since 2009, divorce figures in the country primarily hovered around four thousand, peaking at around 4,800 and 4,900 in 2014 and 2015, respectively. 2012 saw the lowest number of divorces, with approximately 3,900 cases.

This, however, presents new challenges, such as a discrepancy in average wages between men and women which, as in many other developed economies, remains a lingering issue.
