The United Arab Emirates has eased the process for extending visit visas.
Changes
- Visit visas valid for 30, 60 or 90 days can extend their visa for an additional 30 days via the UAEICP app
- The extension fee is Dh750.
To extend a visit visa, visa holders must be present in the UAE when applying and must possess a passport with a least six months of validity. To extend, applicants must have the original entry permit and a colored photo per the standards.
Extension applicants that are missing information will be rejected. Applications that are rejected three times will be permanently rejected. Fee refunds will only return issuance fees and any financial guarantees provided.
