Dubai Residents Can Now Obtain a 90-Day Visit Visa for Family and Friends in the UAE
Residents in Dubai can now obtain a three-month visit visa for their friends and family. To acquire the visa, the host must pay a refundable deposit of Dh1,000. Although travel agencies in the country are unable to apply for the visas in their systems, individuals can apply for it online through the GDRFA website, app or at an Amer typing center. Apart from the 90-day visit visa, the GDRFA website also allows users to apply for other types of entry permits such as business or job opportunities, green visas, and patient es**rt permits.
The Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship, Customs and Ports Security (ICP) in the UAE recently introduced a package of updates to enhance the smart services system, which includes 15 services as of February 1, 2023. Some of the new entry permits available include job exploration, temporary work, medical treatment, and studies and training. Dubai residents have found the process of applying for the 90-day visa to be simple and hassle-free compared to other types of visas.
