Getting a Dubai Visa From Europe

If you live in Europe and your passport needs advance UAE approval, you can apply online before you travel. The correct route depends mainly on the passport you use and, in some cases, your residence status. This applies whether you are based in the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Italy or another European country.

Choose the guide that matches your situation: European Union residents can use the Dubai Visa for EU Residents pillar. If you are based in Britain, use the Dubai Visa From UK guide. Non-UK passport holders living there can also check the UK BRP and eVisa holders guide.

Who Needs a Dubai Visa When Travelling From Europe?

European Passport Holders

Many European passport holders can receive entry permission on arrival, so they do not need to buy a tourist visa before travelling. The permitted stay and conditions depend on nationality.

Non-European Passports

Many people who legally live in Europe but hold a non-European passport still need a UAE visa in advance. A European residence permit does not automatically replace the rule attached to the passport.

Common Resident Examples

Indian, Moroccan, Turkish and Pakistani passport holders living in Europe should check the rule for their nationality as well as any guidance linked to their country of residence.
