Do Iraqi citizens need a visa for Dubai?

Yes. An Iraqi passport does not provide the ordinary visa-free or visa-on-arrival route for a Dubai tourist visit. The traveller should receive an approved UAE visa before departure.

The issued document is UAE entry permission, even though travellers commonly call it a Dubai visa. It can normally be used for permitted travel across the UAE, subject to the conditions printed on the visa and the final entry decision.

Dubai visa options for Iraqi passport holders

DubaiVisa.com’s listed assisted-service prices currently include US$122 for 14 days, US$125 for 30 days and US$220 for 60 days, subject to eligibility and the final checkout total. Multiple-entry options currently start from US$259.
