UAE Tourist Visa
The tourist visa process for the UAE depends on your nationality. Some nationalities are eligible for visa-free entry or a visa on arrival, while others need to apply for a visa in advance.
Required Documents (General list, specific requirements may vary):
- Passport: Original passport with at least six months of validity from the date of entry into the UAE and at least two blank pages. Machine-readable passports are usually required.
- Passport Copies: Coloured scanned copies of the first and last pages of your passport.
- Photographs: Recent passport-sized colour photographs with a white background (specific size might be required, e.g., 4.3cm x 5.5cm or 6cm x 6cm).
- Application Form: Duly filled and signed visa application form (usually available online or through the sponsoring agency).
- Flight Ticket: Confirmed return or onward flight ticket.
Submission and Processing:
- Submit the application and required documents online or through the chosen channel.
- Pay the visa fee. The fee varies depending on the visa type and duration.
- Visa processing time can vary, typically taking a few business days (e.g., 2-4 working days, but express services might be available for faster processing).
Visa Approval and Entry:
- Once your visa is approved, you will receive a visa grant notification or an e-visa.
- Print a copy of your e-visa confirmation to present upon arrival in the UAE.
- Ensure that the details on your visa match your passport information.
