A UAE tourist visa that permits more than one entry while it remains valid — unlike a single-entry visa, which is voided the moment you leave. It's designed for travellers combining Dubai with regional side trips, several business visits, or cruise stopovers. The permitted stay, last-entry date and re-entry conditions printed on your issued visa are what govern your individual case, and should always be checked before you travel.
Visa approval, processing time and entry are decided solely by UAE immigration authorities. Dubai Visitor Visa is a privately managed visa assistance service and cannot guarantee approval.

The 30-day multiple entry Dubai visa is a UAE tourist visa that allows you to exit and re-enter the country more than once while the visa remains valid, rather than being cancelled the moment you leave — unlike a single-entry visa. It suits travellers who need to step out to a neighbouring country partway through their trip, or who are making several separate visits to the UAE in quick succession, without applying for a fresh visa each time. The exact permitted stay per entry, last date of entry, and any conditions on re-entry are set out on your individual issued visa, and those printed terms always take priority over any general description on this page.
Attending meetings across the UAE and neighbouring GCC countries without reapplying between trips.
Combining a Dubai holiday with a side trip to Oman and returning to the UAE afterward.
Cruises that dock in Dubai on more than one occasion during an itinerary.
Visiting relatives with plans to leave and return within the same trip window.
Anyone whose itinerary is not a single, fixed, one-way visit to the UAE.
Planning a single, fixed trip with no plans to leave and return? The 30-day single entry Dubai visa is usually the more cost-effective option.
Eligibility for a pre-arranged 30-day multiple entry visa generally depends on your nationality, passport validity (at least 6 months from your entry date), and whether your intended sponsor route — travel agency, airline, hotel, or a UAE resident — supports the multiple-entry category.
Visa-on-arrival warning: If your passport qualifies for UAE visa-on-arrival or visa-free entry, you may not need to apply for this product at all, and the on-arrival permit you receive may differ from this pre-arranged multiple-entry visa in stay length and entry count. Confirm your specific eligibility before applying, since on-arrival rules vary by nationality and change periodically.
Eligibility for the multiple-entry category depends on your specific nationality, current country of residence, and sponsor route, and these details vary by case. Our team can confirm whether this visa — rather than a single-entry visa, a visa-on-arrival, or another category — is the right fit for you before you apply. Reach us using the contact details at the bottom of this page.
Nationality lists and on-arrival eligibility are not reproduced here as a fixed table because they are periodically updated by UAE immigration authorities. This page will not assert blanket approval for any nationality.
Two separate things matter for this visa, and confusing them is one of the most common traveller mistakes:
| Item | What to check | Where it's confirmed |
|---|---|---|
| Entry-validity window | The last date by which you must make each entry | Printed on your approved visa — we do not publish a fixed number of days for this exact product, since GDRFA's own service page does not state one |
| Permitted stay | Up to 30 days, per the conditions shown on your visa | Printed on your approved visa, counted from your entry date |
Within the entry-validity window shown on your visa, you can exit and re-enter more than once. Publicly available GDRFA information does not clearly confirm whether a fresh 30-day stay allowance begins after every re-entry, so we do not claim that it automatically resets — your issued visa is the record that governs your specific case. Once the entry-validity window on your visa closes, no further entries are permitted, even if you never used the full stay allowance.
The document in your hand is the final authority. Treat the exact last-entry date and stay length printed on your issued visa as overriding any general figure on this page — immigration systems apply the terms on your specific visa file.
The total you pay combines UAE government charges with insurance and Dubai Visitor Visa's service and sponsorship assistance. Official GDRFA pages currently present this visa's government costs differently in different places, so below we show what each source states rather than a single invented number.
| Component | Published information |
|---|---|
| GDRFA 30-day tourist visa base fee | AED 300 |
| VAT (5%) | Applied on top of the government fee |
| Knowledge & Innovation Dirhams | AED 20, where applicable |
| Additional fee if applying from inside the UAE | AED 500, where applicable |
| Insurance | Confirmed at checkout |
| Dubai Visitor Visa service & sponsorship assistance | Confirmed at checkout |
| Express handling surcharge | Confirmed at checkout |
| Your total | From AED 700 standard (~US$190) · From AED 800 express (~US$218) |
GDRFA Dubai's public service page and a separate GDRFA FAQ currently show different fee presentations for this short-term multiple-entry visa. See GDRFA's multiple-entry visa service page. The total above includes applicable government charges, insurance, and our service and sponsorship assistance combined — it is never the same figure as the bare government fee alone, and your exact total is confirmed before you pay.
A refundable security deposit does not apply to the standard travel-agency-sponsored 30-day multiple entry route processed on this page. A separate GDRFA category — a multiple-entry visa sponsored by a friend or relative rather than a tourism establishment — carries its own refundable financial guarantee. That is a different product from the one on this page; if you are being sponsored by a relative or friend, ask us which route applies to your case before paying.
Express processing means Dubai Visitor Visa reviews and submits your documents on a priority basis. GDRFA's own published service benchmark for this visa is 48 hours; our express handling speeds up our internal review and submission, but it does not guarantee faster assessment or approval by UAE immigration authorities.
Government and processing fees are generally non-refundable once an application has been submitted for verification, regardless of outcome. See our full refund policy for exact terms before you pay.
File quality matters. Blurred, cropped, incomplete or unreadable files may result in replacement-document requests or processing delays. Upload clear colour scans as JPG, PNG or PDF.
24–72 working hours after your documents are fully verified.
4–24 calendar hours after your documents are fully verified.
The processing clock starts once your documents pass initial verification — not from the moment you submit the form. Common causes of delay include unclear scans, mismatched personal details, incomplete nationality-specific documents, and submissions made just before UAE weekends or public holidays.
These are our processing estimates, not guarantees. GDRFA's own published service benchmark for this visa is 48 hours; actual government approval timing depends on UAE immigration authorities and can vary by case.

| Entries allowed | More than one, within the validity window on your visa | One — voided on exit | More than one, within the validity window on your visa |
| Stay per entry | Up to 30 days | Up to 30 days | Up to 60 days |
| Typical total price | From AED 700 (~$190) | From ~$160 | AED 900–1,200 (~$245–327) |

Official guidance on extending a multiple-entry visa is not consistent: one GDRFA FAQ describes a short-term multiple-entry tourist visa as non-extendable, while other GDRFA and ICP service pages publish extension routes for eligible tourism entry permits. Because sources conflict, treat extension as something to confirm case by case with the issuing authority or your sponsoring tourism establishment — do not assume it will be available, or that it will cost or process the same as a single-entry extension.
Two extension routes exist on our site for related visa categories: an inside-country extension and an A2A (airport-to-airport) extension. Neither is confirmed to apply to a multiple-entry visa specifically — eligibility depends on your visa file and current immigration approval, so check with us before assuming either route applies to your case.
Overstay fines apply once your permitted stay ends. ICP currently publishes a fine of AED 50 per day once your permitted stay and any grace period applicable to your visa have ended. A separate GDRFA FAQ shows a different daily figure for related visa categories, so official sources are not fully consistent on this point. Confirm your exact expiry date, any applicable grace period, and outstanding fine amount with the authority handling your visa before departure.
Because GDRFA and ICP information can differ and change over time, treat the figures above as a starting point rather than a final amount. Settle any confirmed fine before departure — unresolved immigration fines can complicate future UAE visa applications in some cases.
Once you submit payment, you will receive an application reference by email. Use it on the Dubai Visitor Visa status page to check whether your application is pending, approved, or requires more information. You can also verify an issued e-visa independently through official UAE immigration channels once it has been issued.
Your passport scan and photo are checked before submission to reduce avoidable rejections.

No. This visa is strictly for tourism, family visits and business meetings. It does not permit employment or paid work of any kind. Working on a tourist visa is a violation of UAE immigration law and can result in fines, deportation and a re-entry ban.
Possibly, but official guidance is inconsistent: some sources describe short-term multiple-entry tourist visas as non-extendable, while others publish extension routes for eligible tourism permits. Confirm current extension eligibility and cost for your specific visa file before assuming it will be approved.
A single-entry visa is cancelled the moment you exit the UAE, even with unused days remaining. A multiple entry visa lets you leave and re-enter as many times as needed within your 30-day stay allowance without reapplying. See our 30-day single entry visa page if your trip is one continuous stay.
Standard processing is estimated at 24–72 working hours and express at 4–24 calendar hours for our document review and submission, counted after your documents pass verification. GDRFA's own published service benchmark is 48 hours; these are estimates, not guarantees, and actual government approval time can vary.
Officially published requirements include a passport copy valid for at least six months, a recent personal photo, a return or onward travel ticket, and valid UAE health insurance. Depending on your case, you may also be asked for accommodation details, a birth certificate for a minor, a PAN card (for some Indian applicants), or additional financial proof — these vary by nationality and processing channel.
Standard processing starts from AED 700 (approximately US$190) and express processing starts from AED 800 (approximately US$218). This includes applicable government charges, insurance and our service and sponsorship assistance — not the bare government fee alone. Your exact total is confirmed before payment.
The visa permits more than one re-entry within its validity window. We do not state an unlimited or fixed maximum entry count, since that is not confirmed by the exact terms printed on every issued visa — check the conditions on your specific visa document.
It is a UAE tourist visa that allows you to enter and exit the country more than once during its validity window, with a stay allowance per entry as shown on your issued visa, instead of being cancelled after a single exit like a single-entry visa.
Yes. UAE tourist and visit visas issued through this route are valid for travel across all seven Emirates — Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain — not Dubai alone.
ICP currently publishes an overstay fine of AED 50 per day once your permitted stay and any applicable grace period have ended, though a separate GDRFA FAQ shows a different figure for related categories. Confirm your exact expiry date and any outstanding fine with the authority handling your visa, and settle it before departure.
Generally yes — that is the core advantage of a multiple-entry visa over a single-entry one. You can exit to Oman or elsewhere and re-enter the UAE as long as you do so within the visa's entry-validity window and your re-entry conditions are met.
Eligibility depends on your nationality, passport validity, and sponsor route. It is not open to every nationality in the same way, and some passport holders may already qualify for visa-on-arrival or visa-free entry instead. Contact our team to confirm your eligibility before applying.
Publicly available GDRFA information does not clearly confirm that a new 30-day stay begins after every re-entry. Your approved visa will show the permitted stay, validity and re-entry conditions that apply to your case — check those printed terms before planning multiple trips.
