People from 82 different countries can come to the UAE without getting a visa before they arrive. When they arrive, they can either get a visa that lets them stay for 30 days and can be extended for 10 more days, or they can get one that lets them stay for 90 days. If they are from nearby GCC countries, they can use their passport or ID card to enter without a visa or sponsor.
If someone from India has a regular passport, they can get a visa that lets them stay for 14 days when they arrive. They can also ask for an extension for another 14 days. But their passport needs to be valid for at least 6 months from when they arrive, and they must have a visa or residency card from the US, UK, or a country in the EU.
People who can’t get a visa-free entry or a visa when they arrive need to get an entry permit before they come. This permit is given by the UAE’s Residency and Foreigners Affairs office and depends on the reason they want to visit.
The UAE’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs suggests that people who want to visit the UAE should check the official website for the latest visa information. The Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship’s website also has details about visa requirements. If you’re not sure, you can also ask airlines for the most recent information.
