What Is a 30-Day UAE Visa for GCC Residents?
The 30-Day UAE Visa for GCC Residents is specifically designed for expatriates residing in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries who wish to visit the United Arab Emirates. Whether your purpose is leisure, visiting family and friends, or a short business trip, this hassle-free Single Entry package is an ideal choice, granting you entry to any of the seven UAE emirates.
With this visa, you are permitted a maximum stay of 30 days from the date of your entry, and the visa remains valid for 30 days to use for your initial arrival. Applications can be completed entirely online without needing to visit an embassy. Should your plans change, travelers entering on this package may also have the flexibility to extend their stay in the UAE for an additional period (extending up to 60 days total) subject to current immigration approval guidelines and applicable extension fees.
