A Dubai tourist visa is UAE entry permission for an eligible visitor travelling for a holiday, family visit or another permitted short stay. Your issued visa shows the entry type, the period in which you can use it and your permitted stay. Check those details on the actual visa before travelling.
Travellers also use the terms Dubai visit visa and UAE tourist visa when planning a short trip. The category and conditions shown for your passport and on the issued permission determine what you can do.
