Your Guide to Dubai Visas from Pakistan (2026)

Dubai remains the number one holiday and transit destination for Pakistanis. Whether you're visiting for the Dubai Shopping Festival, business meetings, or a family vacation, Harmain Travels is your premier partner in Islamabad for rapid visa processing.

Types of UAE Tourist Visas

The UAE government offers several tourist visa durations based on your travel needs:

14-Day Tourist Visa: Ideal for short vacations or business trips.

30-Day Tourist Visa: The most popular choice for family holidays.

60-Day Tourist Visa: Perfect for those visiting relatives or planning an extended stay.

Note: All tourist visas are typically single-entry, though multiple-entry options exist for frequent travelers under specific conditions.

Documents Required for Pakistanis

The application process is entirely digital. You only need to provide clear color scans of:

Passport: Bio-data page (first page). Must be valid for at least 6 months.

Photograph: Recent passport-sized photo with a white background.

CNIC: Clear scan of your Pakistani ID card (Front and Back).

Optional but recommended for faster approval:

Previous travel history (stamps of USA, UK, Schengen, or previous UAE visits).

Confirmed return ticket and hotel booking.

Processing Time and Visa Fees

Standard Processing: Takes 2 to 4 working days.

Express/Urgent Processing: Available upon request, often taking 24 to 48 hours.

Fees: Visa fees fluctuate based on exchange rates and UAE immigration policies. A standard 30-day visa typically costs around PKR 25,000 to PKR 30,000. Contact our office for today's exact rate.

Common Reasons for Visa Rejection

While UAE visa approval rates are high, rejections do happen. Common reasons include:

Blurred or low-quality passport scans.

Previous overstays in the UAE.

Applying with a profession on your passport that the UAE currently restricts (unskilled labor categories are heavily scrutinized).

Applying as a solo young traveler without financial proof or family ties in the UAE.
