Costs for a Business Visa for the UAE

When determining the costs for a business visa for the UAE, a number of factors need to be considered. The main costs include consular and service fees, as well as optional extras such as filling out the online visa application, obtaining overseas health insurance, and choosing the Priority Service.

Please note that the final costs depend on the type of visa, nationality, and processing time. We recommend using our Visa Calculator to conveniently calculate the total costs including all additional services online.

To obtain a business visa for the UAE, you must submit the following documents:

Completed questionnaire
Passport
Letter of invitation
Employer's letter
Copy of residence permit

While the visa application for most travel destinations is processed through the consular foreign representations, i.e. the consulates and embassies, the UAE visa can be obtained only through an Emirati sponsor or host before departure. In the case of business visas, the local business partner is usually authorized to apply for a sponsored entry permit. However, it is not always a given that an Emirati company will take care of the foreign visitor's request. The visa application is associated with time, effort, and formalities. Language barriers occasionally lead to misunderstandings.

How we help you with your visa application!

  • The visa application can be quickly and conveniently submitted online.
  • No search for sponsors is required.
  • We only need a copy of your passport, 1 passport photo, and details about your travel plans.
  • No salary information is required.

Important note:

Please note that currently no e-visas are available for citizens of the following countries:
Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Iraq, Israel, Yemen, Libya, Nigeria, and Syria. Those holding a passport from Algeria, Morocco, or Tunisia will only receive the electronic visa at a minimum age of 40. For applicants not eligible for e-visas, the mandatory route is through a consular mission of the UAE abroad.
