Ok, so you have decided that you are gonna take that trip to Dubai that you have been lurking for some time. The first obstacle you are going to face is the Visa, of course only if you need one. There are plenty of countries out there hat don’t require a visa to visit UAE hence Dubai. Well, the Indian passport holders aren’t all that lucky because we do need a visa before arriving in Dubai unless you have a US visa/green card or residential permit from the Schengen countries.
First, let us talk about the countries that don’t need a visa prior to arrival. They include those who don’t need a visa at all or can get a visa on arrival. Most European countries don’t need a visa at all while Australian & Americans can get a visa on arrival. The visa on arrival is a piece of cake and all you need is your passport and round trip flight tickets and can get your 30 day UAE visa. UAE maintains a strictly reciprocating policy and only offers visa free travel if the other country does the same. The map given below should be enough to guide most of you people.
If you actually do need a visa then the best way to go about and in some cases the only way to go about is through an agent. Check your country’s official website for up to date a accurate information on the prices. Indians only need their passports and ₹5500 to get their UAE visa which is a fairly simple process. The visa is actually an E visa so no visa stamp on your passport.
