UAE expands visa-on-arrival programme for Indian visitors, families

The UAE has broadened the visa-on-arrival programme for Indian nationals and their families holding regular passports. Effective February 13 this year, the new regulations will allow Indian passport holders to enter the UAE with valid visas, residency permits, or green cards from six additional countries, expanding the previous list that included the United States, European Union nations, and the United Kingdom.

The Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship, Customs, and Port Security (ICP) announced that Indian passport holders with valid residency permits from Singapore, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada will also now benefit from this initiative.

The programme allows visitors to enter the UAE without obtaining a prior visa. Upon arrival, these individuals will receive entry visas at all approved entry points in the UAE, provided their passports have a minimum validity of six months and applicable fees are paid, according to the country’s regulations.
