In this video, we explain why we came to the UAE and what visa we got to enter the United Arab Emirates. Watch the video for full details on the benefits, cost, how to apply, details of the official websites (links below) and processing time for this visa. Also, watch and learn about why the visa application is sometimes "returned for modification" and what we did when that happened. Comment your questions below!
Links:
1. UAE Visa Portal (government website): icp.gov.ae/en/service/issuanc...
You can apply either as individual or as family group. All documents must be uploaded accurately as asked by the portal - especially for Primary Applicant (in case of family group)
2. Insurance we bought: www.orientonline.ae/PORTALS/T...
3. Flights (refundable): skyscanner.pxf.io/k0zo7v - check Emirates airline - we bought the Go Flex Plus class ticket for fully refundable option
4. Cheap hotels: skyscanner.pxf.io/eKqAO6 (or mention your friend/relative's contact details in the visa form)

The main problem is keeping 70k as a deposit without getting any interests. This was actually changed last year before to that it was only 650 aed no security 😊

@TheBackpacksters 11 ай бұрын

Yes! That's true 😅 the only potential gain is any currency appreciation but that could be quite small.

Hi , I have question regards to banks statement current my application under modification saying that need to update 6 months statement, unfortunately I have already attached but my six month bank statements around 30 pages unable to update one file so I break down into 5 file & update again they send for modification. In this case how to I fix with should I submit summary of 6 month bank statements in such case only 1 page will come it’s that sufficient?

@TheBackpacksters Ай бұрын

You must combine the multiple files into one PDF statement of all six months transactions. Combine it and reduce the file size using any online tools like Adobe 👍🏼 one page summary will not work.

Thanks! This is a nice video. Im in a situation where my father possesses the required bank balance of 4K USD, while my mother does not. should we present separate bank statements for both individuals, or would my father's bank statement alone be sufficient? Pls advise

@TheBackpacksters 6 ай бұрын

No, as a couple, we submitted only one bank statement of the primary applicant ("sponsor" as per the form). As long as the balance shows the amount for both individuals, it's alright!

@dipeshagarwal2525 10 ай бұрын

When you have resubmitted the bank statement, do you have deleted the old statement and replaced it or attached new statement as an additional attachment

Yes, deleted the incorrect one and reuploaded the new one with a comment explaining our response to their comments.

You could upload it and wait for the officer's comments. They give you three 'back-and-forths' before closing the visa application.

Hello dear, Can you tell me if we get UAE 5 years multiple visa and deposit 3000 dirham for security, after 10 to 15 months cancellation we want to return our security money. Whether we get it or not. Or 5 years later?

@TheBackpacksters 4 ай бұрын

The rules say that you get the deposit on cancellation or maturity of visa term.. so you can cancel after 10-15 months as you said and get refund 😃

Hi! I'm trying to apply but after 24hrs. I've received an email stating to reupload an insurance that covers the stay in UAE. So it was a mistake from the travel agency where they missed out the part that the Travel COverage place is not in UAE. SO I needed to reupload another one. Hoping that it will be approved. For Bank Statement, I got the one from my bank app but it's not stamped but they didn't say anything like that. Only the problem with the insurance.
