Short-Term Tourist Visa (Single Entry)

The 30-day single-entry tourist visa permits visitors to take leisure, family, or brief exploratory trips to the United Arab Emirates. Valid for 60 days from issuance, it allows continuous stay of up to 30 days for travelers non-qualifying for visa-on-arrival status. Application is available exclusively through accredited tourism establishments.

The visa costs 252 AED with 5% VAT (13 AED) added, totaling 265 AED. Processing takes 48 hours. A valid passport with six months' remaining validity, a color passport photo, confirmed return/onward flight, and proof of accommodation are required. This visa strictly prohibits employment or paid work.

This visa is ideal for independent leisure travelers, family visitors, and tourists seeking a straightforward pre-arranged permit without long processing delays.
