Dubai is a global hub for business and tourism, and the UAE has streamlined the e-visa process for Pakistani citizens. Whether you are traveling for a short holiday, visiting family, or transiting, here is everything you need to know about getting your Dubai visa in 2026.
Types of Dubai Tourist Visas
The UAE offers several visa durations. The most popular options for tourists are:
- 30-Day Tourist Visa: Ideal for short vacations. Valid for 60 days from issuance and allows a 30-day stay.
- 60-Day Tourist Visa: Best for longer stays with family or extensive tourism.
Required Documents
The Dubai e-visa is one of the most straightforward visas to obtain. You do NOT need to submit physical documents or visit an embassy.
- Passport Copy: Clear color scan of the first page (valid for at least 6 months).
- Photograph: Recent digital passport-sized photo with a white background.
- CNIC Copy: Clear scan of both sides of your Pakistani ID card.
- Guarantor Documents: Sometimes requested if applying independently, but waived when applying through an authorized agent like OS Consultants.
Visa Fees and Processing Time
| Visa Type | Approximate Cost (PKR) | Processing Time |
|-----------|-------------------------|-----------------|
| 30-Day Visa | PKR 25,000 - 30,000 | 2-3 Working Days |
| 60-Day Visa | PKR 45,000 - 55,000 | 2-3 Working Days |
*Note: Visa prices fluctuate slightly based on airline sponsorships and current exchange rates.*
Important Updates for 2026
The UAE immigration authorities have become stricter regarding young, solo travelers from certain regions. To avoid rejection:
- Ensure your passport scan is high quality and not cropped.
- If you have a previous UAE visa that was overstayed, your new application will likely face delays or rejection.
- Ensure you carry sufficient funds (minimum 3,000 AED) and a confirmed return ticket when traveling, as border control checks these frequently.
