Tourist visa

Whether you're coming for meetings or to see the country, we run the application end to end and follow the outcome.

01

A simple process

You send documents by email or WhatsApp: passport copy, a photograph, and for extensions a copy of the previous visa.

02

End-to-end handling

We stay with the application through every stage and keep you updated on progress.

03

Fast results

Tourist visa applications are usually decided in 2-5 working days.

First check: do you need one?

Citizens of some countries can enter the UAE with a visa on arrival or without a visa; duration and entry count vary by nationality. If you're eligible for visa on arrival, that is the fastest and cheapest route.

For nationalities without that entitlement, a pre-arranged tourist visa is required. Before applying we check together which category you're in and whether your passport has enough validity remaining.

Passport validity

For visa on arrival, at least six months of passport validity is usually required. For pre-arranged visas the period can be shorter. Travel rules vary by nationality and are updated — we confirm before applying.

Can you set up a business on a tourist visa?

A tourist visa carries no right to work or reside. It is fine for coming to the UAE, holding meetings, visiting zones and making a decision. Once you decide to incorporate, the residence process starts separately; many of our clients combine the two into a single trip.
