UAE Visa FAQ for Pakistani passport holders

Do Pakistani citizens need a visa for the UAE?

Yes. Pakistani citizens need a visa arranged before they travel to the UAE. For a holiday this is the UAE tourist visa, issued electronically by ICP, the federal authority, or by GDRFA Dubai. UAE embassies do not issue tourist visas, so you cannot get one there. The application is filed by a UAE-licensed travel agent, tour operator or hotel, or by a UAE airline such as Emirates, Etihad, flydubai or Air Arabia. Visarun prepares your application and arranges it through such a licensed sponsor. A relative or friend living in the UAE can sponsor a visit visa instead.

How much does the UAE tourist visa cost?

GDRFA Dubai lists the single-entry tourist visa at AED 200 for 30 days or AED 300 for 60 days, and the multiple-entry visa at AED 300 for 30 days or AED 500 for 60 days, plus 5% VAT and with no security deposit. Visit Dubai shows totals of AED 305, AED 436.5, AED 405 and AED 636.5 for the same four options. ICP, which handles the other emirates, prices the visa per month and adds a refundable guarantee of AED 1,000 for single or AED 2,000 for multiple entry. Hotels, agents and airlines that sponsor visas may add their own charges, which are not official fees.

How long does it take to get a UAE tourist visa?

GDRFA Dubai gives an expected completion time of 48 hours, and Visit Dubai says applications are typically processed within 48 hours of submission. ICP lists 2 days on its service card and 48 hours after all requirements are met in its FAQ. Once issued, the visa must be used to enter the UAE within 60 days of the date of issue, so time your application to your travel dates. Visarun cannot speed up or guarantee the authority's decision.

How long can Pakistani citizens stay in the UAE on a tourist visa?

The tourist visa allows a stay of 30 or 60 days, with single or multiple entry, depending on the visa issued. ICP can extend a tourism entry permit once or several times, up to 120 days in total; its extension card lists an AED 100 application fee and an AED 500 extension fee. Each day of overstay is fined AED 50. For repeat trips, the UAE also issues a self-sponsored 5-year multiple-entry tourist visa, which needs a bank balance of USD 4,000 over the previous 6 months.

What documents do I need for a UAE tourist visa?

GDRFA Dubai and ICP ask for a passport valid for at least 6 months, a copy of the passport, a personal photo, a return or onward ticket and medical insurance valid in the UAE. Pakistani applicants also add a copy of their national ID card: GDRFA Dubai requires it from nationals of Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq and Pakistan, and ICP from nationals of Afghanistan, Iran and Iraq. The sponsor must be licensed in the UAE. Visarun checks your documents before your application is filed.
