UAE Tourist Visa

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.
