Dubai Visa from India 2026: Complete Guide to the UAE Visa for Indians

DTCM & ICP Verified

Most Indian passport holders need a pre-approved UAE visa before flying to Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or any other emirate, and they can apply entirely online with no embassy visit. Visa on arrival is limited to travelers holding a qualifying US visa, US Green Card, or UK or EU residence visa. Options include 48-hour and 96-hour transit visas and 14, 30, and 60-day tourist visas, with multiple entry available on the 30 and 60-day ones. Applicants need a passport valid for six months, the first and last passport pages, a white-background photo, and a return ticket and hotel booking. Standard processing takes 48 to 72 working hours and express takes 12 to 24, so apply at least 5 to 7 days ahead. Tourist visas can usually be extended, but working on one is illegal and overstaying brings fines and entry bans.
