Visa on Arrival in Dubai

By Hawk10

Can somebody specifically tell me (No Guesses) if I can get visa on arrival in Dubai. My Designation is "EMPLOYEE" or "MUADHIF" in Arabic but practically am working on a Manager position in a private company. Want to go urgently to Dubai to meet some friends there. Immigrations are closed and I cannot get visa from any where. If somebody has this experience, please share.

Please check with EMIRATES as i saw a mail today from Emirates stating that book your ticket from Emirates and you can get a ONLINE VISA. They say the Dubai visa is just a click away. Please use this option. Sounds Dubai wants visitors .Good luck

See the below information.

You will not get visa on arrival. The two main conditions for the visa are:

1. Working in GCC as Engineer, Manager, Auditor,and few more profiles (stamped on visa)

2. For certain nationalities you need to be living in GCC for a minimum of 6 months.

However depending on your nationality you can arrange a visa through Emirates in 6 -12 working hours.

Hope that helps.

You will not get visa on arrival in Dubai. I have two friends in my Company working as Managers with Designation as Employee on their ID and they are getting pre-arranged visas to travel even for their Business meetings.
