UAE visit visa: Big news for those going to UAE during summer holidays If you are visiting the country on a tourist or visit visa, what documents do you need to carry apart from your passport?
All arrangements required will be clarified before you disembark according to travel and tourism experts in UAE
1. Secure your return flight ticket
Husham Kattingeri, an outbound travel supervisor at Regal Tours Worldwide, spoke about how tourists should always have a return ticket in place, regardless of which country they are visiting.
“The first thing that is compulsory for anybody, not just in the UAE but anywhere in the world, is that you must show a return ticket, either to your home country or even if it is to another country, as long as you have a valid visa for that country. That means that a ticket out of UAE must be there, you cannot have a one-way ticket,” Kattingeri said.
2. Consider carrying cash
Kattingeri said that regardless of which country you travel to, it is advisable to carry sufficient amount cash, to cover for your expenses when travelling.
“It is better to have some amount of money with you, which you will need anyway during your trip. It helps,” he said.
3. Hotel booking confirmation (optional, but beneficial)
Nizar Pulappadi, manager at Season Travel and Tourism, added that while in most cases you may not be asked for any such details, it is important to know exactly where you are going to stay.
“If a person is a visit visa holder, and they don’t have any relatives or friends in the UAE, it is important to have a hotel booking. But if you do have a relative or friend, all you need to do is carry their passport copy and visa page, as supporting documents, in case you are asked about where you are going to stay. It is also important to communicate clearly, so if you are asked by an officer where you are going to stay, provide a clear address or the area in which your friend or relative stays,” Pulappadi said.
