Documents and tips for Emirati travellers

UAE passports are strong, but destinations can still require an eVisa and a validity buffer beyond your stay — confirm both before booking. Fees are billed in US dollars, so Emirati applicants may see an AED conversion on their card. The most common avoidable mistake for UAE citizens: assuming the UAE passport’s wide access removes the eVisa step — some destinations still require it.

  • Enter your name in Latin letters exactly as transliterated in your UAE passport.
  • Check whether the destination grants visa-free entry to Emirati passports or still needs an eVisa.
  • Allow lead time around major holiday travel periods when volumes are higher.
