How it works

From passport to e-visa in five steps

Everything happens on this website. You never visit an office, and you can stop and pick up again from your confirmation email.

  1. Step 1

    Tell us your passport

    Pick the nationality on your passport and the country you are travelling from. The visa options, documents and fees shown next are matched to the passport you hold — visa-free passports, for example, only see extensions.

  2. Step 2

    Pick the visa that fits your trip

    Compare the visas available to you — 48-hour and 96-hour transit, 14-day, 30-day and 60-day tourist visas in single- or multiple-entry versions, and inside-country or A2A extensions — and pick the one that matches your travel dates.

  3. Step 3

    Complete one form for the group

    Complete one application form and add everyone travelling with you to the same submission. Upload your passport scan, photograph and any supporting bookings — everything is sent over an encrypted SSL connection.

  4. Step 4

    Pay the itemised fee

    Review your fee summary — the sponsored visa fee and the service fee, shown as two separate amounts — then pay securely online by card. A confirmation email with your application ID arrives straight away.

  5. Step 5

    Track it and receive your e-visa

    Track your application at any time with your application ID on the visa status page. Once approved, your e-visa is emailed to you — check every detail against your passport before you fly.

Your document checklist

What to have ready before you apply

Have these four items ready before you start — most applicants complete the upload in one sitting.

  1. Passport bio page

    A clear colour scan, with the passport valid for at least 6 months from your travel date

  2. Recent photograph

    One recent colour photograph per applicant, on a plain white background — black-and-white photos are not accepted

  3. Return flight details

    A reservation or itinerary is enough — we recommend buying the ticket only after your visa is approved

  4. Where you will stay

    A hotel booking, or the address of the family member or friend you are staying with

Passport rules

  • Valid for at least 6 months from the date of travel
  • At least 2 blank pages left in the passport

Before you upload

  • The passport scan must be fully legible — no corner covered by a finger, paper or glare
  • Your photograph needs a plain white background, with your face clearly visible

FAQ

Dubai visa questions, answered

Straight answers on Dubai visa types, sponsorship, validity and extensions — worth two minutes before you apply.

Still unsure?

A visa specialist will answer your question, usually within minutes.

Match the visa to your trip: a transit visa for a stopover of up to 48 or 96 hours, a 14-day visa for a short break, a 30-day visa for most holidays and family visits, and a 60-day visa for long stays. Choose multiple entry only if you plan to leave the UAE and come back during the trip.
