To obtain a visiting visa, one shall get a valid sponsor within the UAE. It is the sponsor who normally applies for a visiting on behalf of the applicant. Major sponsors in most cases include hotels and tourist companies, airline companies, commercial organisations, and people residing in the UAE. Applicants should pay the fees for visiting visa to the immigration department. This application fee is not refundable, irrespective of the status of the visa application come accepted or rejected.
If you belong to any of the GCC member countries, such as Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Saudi Arabia, you may enter and exit the UAE without a Visa. However, it is not to be confused as free entry and exit to a foreign country. Citizen from GCC member countries is still required to follow the rules prevailing in different areas, such as travelling, business visits and so on. For example, people of recognised job positions and social status, including business visitors, people engaged in travel and tourist activities, doctors, accountants, engineers, or employees working for reputed companies and their family members, drivers, or their servants sponsored by the respective person are eligible for such entry and exit provisions. People of labour status and visa do not have this freedom in the UAE.
