Hi,

I'm planning to go to Dubai to set up/enhance business connections there. Airarabia.com is offering discount flights to Sharjah - my question: On arrival in Sharjah I would be issued a 60 day "Visit Visa" which would be valid for Dubai as well, is that correct?

Anything else I need to consider in this regard before I come to dubai?

Thanks a lot & best regards

Jens

Yes, you will be issued a Visa for the UAE, which is valid in all UAE Emirates. Similar if you flew into Los Angeles and wanted to go to New York.

That's what I was thinking, thanks a lot, mate

Ian, what the heck are you talking about? Sharjah and Dubai are on separate worlds and you need a special "world visa"!

Maybe a silly question,OK, but am new to the Emirates and wanted to be 100% sure everything works out and I'm not stuck at the customs when I should be meeting clients/partners

Take no notice of Cons, Ian is correct in what he told you a visa issued in Sharjah is valid in all of the 7 Emirates.
