How can a Polish national get a 96hour visa to see Dubai?

Question

I am a british Citizen. My fiance is Polish. We will be catching a connecting flight at Dubai airport but have 12 hours between flights and wanted to leave the airport to see the City. I can, but he (being Polish) cannot get a visa upon arrival without a sponsor. Do you think the airline (Emirates) can help? Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

Answer 1

This type of visa applies to passengers passing through UAE airports and is valid for 96 hrs (4 days). If you are travelling on Emirates Airlines, then they can arrange the visa for you. Otherwise, you should contact the Marhaba Services. Please note that a transit visa can only be issued if a visitor has a valid ticket for an onward flight. Arrangement for a transit visa prior to your arrival to Dubai is not necessary and the issuing of a transit visa is free.

This visa can be sponsored by any airline operating in the UAE. Emirates Airlines charges Dhs 51 or $14 for stopover visa upto 96 hours.

Take care and enjoy your trip.

Answer 2

Dear

See this information on Transit Visas

"This type of visa is a 4-day (96 hour) visa, which is issued by sponsorship of an airline operating in the United Arab Emirates. A transit visa can only be issued if a visitor has a valid ticket for an onward flight and the issuing of transit visas are normally free of cost."

So please contact with your airline office for obtaining the transit visa for your fiance.

Best of Luck & Welcome to Dubai
