Hello to all of you, I am new in the forum. I am Austrian but living in the US and will move to Dubai because of my husbands job in September. I am very exited but also a bit worried of the driving situation there. I do have an Austria drivers license, which entitles me to a Dubai DL right away acco...

Hello everybody, I have a question. My husband and I will move to Dubai in September. He will have to commute twice a week to Abu dhabi, so we were told that the best place to live for us would be the Marina in Dubai since it is close to the freeway to AD and nice. True? Or do you have any other sug...

Hi, I am moving with my husband to the UAE beginning of September and we are not sure if the way we are doing it is legally the right way. My husband will work for a British company. So far the visas are not processed yet, but we will enter DUBAI beginning of September while the visas are still bein...

Hi, which regions would you recommend to us? We are looking for something -which is as close as possible tothe road that leads to Abu Dhabi - but still offers a nice region without having to look at construction work every day - possibly a view of the sea or something in a green area - 2 bedroom 2 b...

omg, you are starting late with all of that.

your visa cannot be processed without having the docs attested, besides that it is no problem, since you can be there on a tourist visa. have a relative send the docs to you in the uae.

200 000 AED per year, a bit more or less should not be a problem.

I saw some two bed two bath villas at the springs, meadows. NOt an option? none of the other places have two bed two bath? I know that many of them (emirate hills, meadows, greens, discovery gardens) are not full of construction....

Thanks for your answers. I am fine seeing construction at the way to work etc :) I just don't want to have it in front of my window. I am taking a closer look at the Emirates Living District (Meadows, Emirate Hills, Springs, The Lakes,....). What do you think about that area? Do you live there or kn...

Hello, Since Driving in Dubai is already bad enough and my husband and I got totally lost today I am planning to buy a navigation system. Here a few questions, maybe you know the answer to some or even better, all of them. How does the GPS work without street names and constantly changing roads? How...

alexalexa

I hope for many more. maybe a stupid question, but I assume that the gps "talks", right? I want one that tells me "in 100 meters you have to turn right"
