Yes, most UAE banks apply a monthly low-balance fee if your account balance falls below a specified minimum threshold, and this threshold varies significantly by bank and account tier, from a modest amount on basic accounts to a much higher requirement on premium accounts. Some accounts waive this fee entirely if a minimum salary is transferred each month instead of maintaining a minimum balance, so the fee structure often depends on which qualifying condition you actually meet.
