6 July 2023 - According to the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs & Port Security (ICP), a three-month visit visa has been re-instated in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), which was discontinued at the end of 2022.  Visitors to the UAE can now enter the country on a three-month visa and stay in the country for a period of up to 90 days.

The change was announced in March 2023; however, it is not yet in effect. It is expected to be implemented shortly.

Deloitte’s view

The reinstatement of the longer 90-day visit visa aligns with the government's goal of welcoming people from all over the world to experience the country’s world-class facilities and attractions.
