The United Arab Emirates has launched a new multi-entry visit visa, designed to make travel easier for foreign nationals wishing to visit relatives and friends. This visa allows stays of 30, 60, or 90 days without the need for a local sponsor or guarantor, according to Gulf News.
The visa is available for individuals wanting to visit close family members, such as parents, children, siblings, and spouses. Applicants will need to provide proof of their relationship, such as marriage or birth certificates.
Friends can also apply for the visa, but they must offer “valid reasons” for their visit, like attending important events or spending time with close associates.
Applications can be made through the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA) website, mobile app, or at service centers within the UAE.
To apply, applicants must submit the following documents:
A valid passport with at least six months’ validity
Two recent passport-sized photographs
Financial documentation
Proof of employment or business (e.g., salary certificate, partnership contract, or business license)
The visa fees are as follows:
AED 300 (approx. Rs 22,755) for a 30-day visa
AED 500 (approx. Rs 37,925) for a 60-day visa
AED 700 (approx. Rs 53,095) for a 90-day visa
