The UAE provides a package of facilities and services that contribute to attracting tourism through an integrated system to obtain a tourist visa to visit the country in an easy and simple way.
Tourist visas vary in terms of length of stay and number of entries, including a short-term tourist visa that allows for 30 days to stay in the UAE and only one time, or multiple times upon request. (90 days) and one-time access, or multiple times upon request. Initially, before applying for a visa, you must specify the duration of your visit, the purpose, and the number of entries you want.
Procedures for obtaining a tourist visa:
UAE Embassies or consulates abroad do not issue tourist or visitor visas. A tourist wishing to visit the UAE must consult UAE airlines, licensed travel agents and hotels in the UAE and apply for a tourist visa on his behalf through the official authorities responsible for issuing Visas in the United Arab Emirates.
Some general or special conditions are imposed by airlines prior to the procedure for issuing a tourist visa on your behalf, the most important of which is traveling with the airline concerned, and you should consult your local airlines to check the applicable terms and conditions.
The procedures for obtaining a tourist visa can also be completed by licensed travel agents and hotels in the UAE, provided that tickets are purchased through their offices and hotel bookings are honored.
You can contact travel agencies in your country to take advantage of UAE tour packages in cooperation with local tour guides.
It is important to ensure the reliability of travel agents you intend to deal with. Do not make any payments, nor send copies of your official documents until you are fully sure that the travel agent is licensed and certified. You can request assistance from UAE embassies in your country to verify.
Finally, remember that your passport is valid for six months, as a condition for applying for a tourist visa to the UAE.
