As a Filipino traveler, you’re part of a significant community in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). With around 700,000 Filipinos residing in the Emirates, you’re in good company .

The UAE values the contributions of expatriate workers, with Filipinos comprising a substantial portion of the workforce.

In fact, the UAE is the second top destination for Overseas Filipino Workers, reflecting its appeal and opportunities.

In this comprehensive guide, we’ll demystify the visa process for you, covering essential details about Dubai visit visas, including A2A visa change, visa change by bus, and family visa options. Let’s embark on this journey together!

Understanding Dubai Visit Visa

Before diving into the specifics, let’s understand what a visit visa to Dubai entails.

A visit visa allows you to enter and stay in Dubai for a limited period, typically ranging from 30 to 90 days, depending on the type of visa and your eligibility.

It’s essential to obtain the right visa to avoid any legal complications during your stay.

Visa Charges for Dubai Visit Visa

Understanding the costs associated with obtaining a Dubai visit visa is crucial for budget planning. Here are the visa charges for different durations:

30 Days Visa: This visa option allows you to stay in Dubai for 30 days and costs 5900 PHP (390 AED).

60 Days Visa: If you’re planning a longer stay, the 60 days visa provides flexibility and costs 9600 PHP (630 AED).

90 Days Visa: For extended visits or business purposes, the 90 days visa is ideal, with a cost of 23,800 PHP (1500 AED).

These charges may vary slightly depending on currency exchange rates and any additional service fees. It’s advisable to check with Aida Travels or other authorized visa agents for the most accurate pricing information.

This process is convenient for those who want to extend their stay without returning to their home country.

Paid parking in Dubai: Residents face up to Dh4,000 extra yearly costs when new rates kick in

Maria, a Filipina nanny, has a brother who is supposed to come this week to visit her in Dubai. All expenses have been taken care of by her Emirati employer – visa has been released; tickets purchased. The visiting brother already has a place where he can stay.

But there’s a dilemma: Maria’s brother could be offloaded at the Philippine airport for not presenting an affidavit of support and guarantee (AoSG).

AoSG is a document required by the Philippine immigration to prove that a Filipino UAE resident can sponsor a visiting family or relative's stay in the country. It can be easily obtained from Philippine missions in the UAE but there is a prohibitive condition requiring expats who are single to show a proof of having at least Dh10,000 monthly income before he or she can sponsor a family member to visit the UAE.

Stay up to date with the latest news. Follow KT on WhatsApp Channels.

Part of the AoSG that Filipinos like Maria will have to sign is a “guarantee that (the visiting family member/s) shall not in any way or manner whatsoever be a public burden or ward in the UAE or any country en route from or to the Philippines.”

AoSG also serves as an assurance that “all financial support to pay for the food, accommodation and travel, including airfare for return to the Philippines, medication and hospitalisation, and other expenses, debts, and obligations incurred including but not limited to immigration fines and penalties” will be covered by the sponsoring relative.

Unfair condition

“But all expenses have already been taken care of by my kind employer,” Maria told the Khaleej Times . “This is a very rare opportunity for my brother to come to Dubai and it’s unfair that I could not bring him here because I’m just a nanny and my salary is below Dh10,000.”

This issue was also raised by migrant rights advocate Barney Almazar. He said: “The issue of AoSG as a mandatory requirement for Filipinos seeking permission to travel abroad will always spark a discourse on the delicate balance between ensuring the welfare of Filipinos overseas and safeguarding their fundamental constitutional right to travel.”

“While acknowledging the government's commitment to protecting Filipino citizens abroad, it is essential to critically examine whether the current requirement aligns with the principles of proportionality and reasonableness – the key tenets of a valid exercise of police power as enunciated by the Philippine Supreme Court, added Almazar, who is also director at the corporate-commercial department of Gulf Law in the UAE, Philippines, UK and Portugal,

Arbitrary requirement

Almazar explained the constitutional right to travel is implicitly protected under the due process clause. Restrictions on this right must be carefully examined to ensure they are reasonable – not arbitrary – and have legitimate governmental objective.

Every person has the right to travel. “The right to travel is not a mere luxury. It is a conduit for personal growth, economic development, and cultural exchange. The imposition of a mandatory affidavit of support and guarantee appears to be a broad measure that raises questions about its necessity and its impact on the right to travel.

“That the traveller will not be a public charge is the primary concern of the UAE, and not the Philippines. If the UAE government has issued a visa to the traveller allowing entry to the Emirates, the Philippine immigration must respect that.”

Almazar continued: “Under UAE immigration regulations, if the tourist is found to have no apparent means of subsistence, he can be deported and his sponsor shall be financially responsible for him, not the Philippine government. Moreover, the AoSG is not a legally enforceable document in the Emirates. It is the visa sponsor and not necessarily the person who issued the affidavit who will bear the responsibility for the tourist.

No empirical evidence

Almazar said the Philippine government has not provided any empirical evidence showing the direct correlation between prevention of human trafficking and AoSG.

AoSG was first introduced in 2002 to purportedly curb human trafficking. It was rescinded following allegations of falsification and redundancy but was eventually reinstated. In 2022, a total of 32,404 Filipinos were withheld at the airport. Of these, only 472 were reported to be victims of human trafficking or illegal recruitment; 873 produced fraudulent documents; while 10 travellers were found to be minors who sought to work abroad, the Philippine Bureau of Immigration reported.

Balancing safety and right to travel

Almazar and Maria said the Philippine government should scrap AoSG. “A careful reassessment of the AoSG requirement is not a call for unchecked travel but a plea for a balance that respects individual liberties while fulfilling the government’s duty to protect its citizens,” Almazar noted.

He added: “We should shift from mandatory to voluntary registration of Filipino travellers. The system of exit pass and submission of AoSG are merely ways of collection, exchange and verification of information.

“If the government will ensure that the traveller’s rights are respected, Filipinos like Maria’s brother, will have no fear of being offloaded and this will encourage full disclosure of their travel/work information which the government can use to monitor and protect OFW abroad," said Almazar.

“There are so many ways to protect the travellers from the dangers of human trafficking. Curtailing the right to travel is not one of them.”

How to Get Dubai Tourist Visa for Filipinos

Dubai is undoubtedly one of the most preferred holiday destinations among Asian citizens. Getting a Dubai visa is one aspect of a Dubai trip that most people find daunting and stressful. However, obtaining a Dubai visa is a straightforward process. All you need to know is a few basic steps and get documents as required and the whole process is easy-peasy. Dubai visa is different for each nationality. If you are a Philippines citizen eager to visit Dubai for a holiday and wondering ‘How to get a Dubai tourist visa for Philippines citizens?’ then here’s a simplified guide to help you get a Dubai visa done effectively.

A Step-by-Step breakdown of getting UAE/Dubai Tourist visa for Philippines citizens

To begin with, you must determine if you need a visa to enter Dubai. There are many countries that are designated as visa-free countries, which require only a valid passport to obtain a v isa on arrival at the Dubai airport. The Philippines however, falls in the category of countries that need to arrange a valid tourist visa before arrival at Dubai airport . That means Filipinos need to go through the process of acquiring a visa before they depart to Dubai.

Once you know that as a Philippines citizen you need to apply for a Dubai tourist visa beforehand, the next step would be to decide what kind of visa you should obtain. Dubai tourist visa for Filipino citizens have the following options – 30-day short term tourist visa with single or multiple entry and Long term visit visa with single entry valid for 90 days. Based on how long you intend to stay in Dubai, you can select the type of visa you need. The 30-day short term single entry visa is the best option for tourists.

To obtain a UAE visa before arriving in Dubai , you will need a sponsor who will apply for the visa on your behalf. If you have a relative, acquaintance, or family member staying in the UAE, then they can become your sponsor and apply for a visa. In the case that you are a tourist and do not know anyone who lives in Dubai, the airline you booked your tickets with, or the hotel you booked for your stay can help you with a visa. In short, you will need to have a sponsor who resides in UAE to get a Dubai visa. Travel agencies based in the UAE can also assist you as sponsors for your Dubai visa.

Once you have figured out these three steps, the next step would be to start the application process and arrange the necessary documentation. For that the applicant needs to download the visa application form, print it, fill it completely without any errors, sign it and keep it ready to send along with other required documents for the visa process. All the documents can be scanned and sent to the sponsor for the visa processing procedure. The documents needed for filing your visa application are as follows:

Documentation for your UAE visa for Philippines citizens

As you plan for a UAE visit, submit the following documentation as part of your UAE visa application form.

• A Filipino passport with six-month validity after you arrive at the UAE border control
• A digital copy of your passport’s first and last pages
• Passport-size photograph captured recently as per the UAE visa photograph guidelines
• A confirmed round-trip flight itinerary
• A confirmed travel or hotel booking
• Validation of your financial capability

You may require additional documentation as per your nationality, which can be requested going forward by the UAE immigration officials while analyzing your visa application profile.

Visa application fee

The visa application fee varies as per single-entry or multiple-entry visas issued. The below charges are per applicant.

• Single Entry – 30 days (AED 250), 60 days (AED 570), and 90 days (AED 600).
• Multiple entries – 30 days (AED 690), 60 days (AED 1450), and 90 days (AED 1740)

Visa processing timeline for UAE visa for Philippines citizens

To avoid delays in visa processing, it is imperative to be precise and double-check your documentation before submitting it to your sponsor. If more documentation is required from your end, the processing of your Dubai visa could be delayed. Discrepancies in documents, incorrect information, or incomplete documents are the reason for the visa to be rejected. Your role in the application for a Dubai visa ends once you have sent the application form and the documents to your sponsor. The rest of the process will be taken care of by your sponsor and all you have to do is wait for a valid visa that gives you entry into the spectacular city of Dubai! For a Dubai visa for Indonesian nationalities , the procedure is quite similar.

Extension of your UAE visa for Philippines citizens

Effective from October 3 rd , 2022, all visas (single and multiple-entry) are valid for sixty days from the date of issuance and will subsequently expire if unused. All travelers can extend their UAE visas for a maximum of 60 days twice. An additional fee of US$ 230 is to be paid per applicant for extending their visas.

• UAE airlines such as Etihad, Emirates, and Qatar Airways can sponsor you as well as any travel agency To make matters simple, just contact Rayna Tours and Travels and ask them to sponsor your Dubai Tourist Visa for the Philippines for you. They will also apply for your visa and make that visa available to you shortly. Call them now.

2. Preparing Supporting Documents

• After you’ve got your sponsorship in place, all you have to do is to arrange for the supporting documents that would help you to obtain your Dubai visa for the Philippines.
• Complete the UAE tourist visa application form. You can obtain this form directly from Rayna Tours or download it from here: http://www.dubaivisa.net/uae/Pdf/UAE-English-VAF01.pdf. Rayna Tours can also fill in your form for you if you like.
• Scan a copy of your passport’s bio page and its last page and attach the scan to your doc set. Your passport must be valid for 6 months or more from the date of your intended travel
• Scan a copy of your colored passport-sized photo with white background
• If you’re being sponsored by someone other than Rayna Tours, then obtain a copy of your sponsor’s Resident Visa and Emirates ID Card.
• Submit scanned copies of your round trip flight tickets. If you are not being sponsored by an airline, submitting airline tickets might not be entirely necessary. Speak to your Rayna Tours representative.
• Submit copies of confirmed hotel bookings. If you’re not being sponsored by a hotel, this might not be strictly necessary. Speak to your Rayna Tours representative.
• If you’re staying with friends or relatives in the UAE, provide your hosts’ complete name, address, and contact numbers, the name of your hosts’ employers, office address and office phone numbers. The visa office needs this information to ensure that you have a valid place to stay when you land in the UAE.
• Copy of y our original bank certificate providing a history of your financial transactions for the past 6 months. Make sure your bank statements show a healthy savings balance that’ll enable you to spend 30 days in the UAE in relative comfort.

• Also, provide scanned copies of your international credit cards if any
• Provide scanned copies of your original certificate of employment that provides details of your current position, salary, years of service and duration of approved leave.
• Provide a copy of your most recent Income Tax Returns document
• If you’re traveling with young kids, then the kids’ birth certificates. If you are a divorced parent, then a copy of your custody papers or spousal permit letter would be required, especially if you’re a woman.
• The fee for the tourist visa is 4770 PHP. Your sponsor will be able to tell you the exact date at the time of your visa application if there’s any change from this figure.
• If you have traveled to the UAE sometime during the past year, then enclose a copy of the entry and exit stamps on your passport
• If you have recently, within the past 5 years, traveled to the USA, UK, Schengen countries, Canada, Russia, Australia or New Zealand, you will need to submit a copy of your visas.

3. Sending Your Application for Submission

Gather all your scanned documents as well as the application and send it to your sponsor, who will do the rest. If you have chosen Rayna Tours and Travels as your sponsor, you can send all the documents via email. We have listed all the necessary documents here, but there might be one or two in addition that might be relevant to your unique situation and circumstances. Rayna Tours may ask you to provide those at the earliest, in order to facilitate speedy processing of the visa.

Some Basic Rules for Dubai Tourist Visa

You can apply for single or multiple entry tourist visas. Ask your Rayna Tours representative to explain the process to you. Visa fees are valid only for the duration of your visa; you cannot extend or renew your tourist visa. However, if you leave the UAE before your tourist visa expires, you can re-enter on a fresh visa. However, if you overstay your 30 days UAE Visa for Philippines duration, you may face legal consequences. If you overstay because of illness and you’re able to prove it, you may be excused. Otherwise, depending on how long you overstay, you may be asked to pay a fine or suffer further legal actions. If you overstay for too long deliberately, you may not be granted a tourist visa again to the UAE.

Reasons Why Dubai Visa Application Get Rejected

Certain mistakes or situations can lead to rejection of your UAE visa application. Here are some of the reasons why the UAE consulate may reject your visa application:

• Solo women travelers under the age of 22 may not get UAE visa
• If your passport specifies unskilled profession like the farmer, laborer or some other service, you are unlikely to get a visa to UAE.
• If you have a previous criminal record in the UAE, your visa request would not be granted.
• If the scanned photographs, passport copy, and other documents are not clear, you would not receive the visa.
• Spelling or factual errors on your application form can also cause rejection.

• If you have a valid UAE residential visa, the request for a new visa would not be accepted.

Dubai Visa Process Time and Fees

The normal process time for UAE visa is 3-4 days. If you opt for you’re an express visa, you would get your UAE visa within 36 hours. The fee for the Dubai tourist visa would depend on the type of visa you have chosen for yourself.

• Tourist visa for 60 days: AED 650

All You Need to Know About UAE

Once you get the visa, it is time to prepare for your holiday in Dubai or anywhere else in the UAE.

• Best Time to Visit UAE

The best time to visit UAE is during the winter season, i.e. between the months of October and March. The climate is pleasant during these months and you also get to enjoy and participate in several events and festivals. Summers in UAE (between April and September) are extremely hot, making sightseeing during the day impossible. However, it is the cheapest time to visit the city. Also, there are several indoor attractions that you can check out during the day, as most indoor places are fully air-conditioned.

UAE is home to some of the most luxurious cities in the world, namely Dubai and Abu Dhabi. You would find some amazing hotels in both these cities. Some of the most popular is the Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi and the Burj Al Arab and Hotel Atlantis, The Palm in Dubai. Apart from these, there are several 2-stars, 3-stars and 4-stars hotel in both the cities. There are so many options in all the Emirate cities of UAE that finding one that fits your budget is not difficult.

• The days are warm in the UAE, even during winters. Hence, pack comfortable, cotton clothes for traveling.
• Apart from Dubai, all the other Emirates are a lit conservative when it comes to clothing. Make sure that your arms, knees, and cleavage are covered, especially when you are visiting mosques.
• PDA is a definite no-no in the UAE. If you are caught, you could be fined, jailed or even deported.

UAE VISA (For DUBAI & ABU DHABI): Requirements & How to Apply

One of the highlights of last year for me was my short stop in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). I was there for two reasons: to visit one of my closest friends, who moved to Dubai a few years ago, and to take advantage of a stopover. I was coming from a longer trip around Morocco and Turkey, and my flight back to Manila (Philippines) was connecting at Dubai Airport, so I decided to just seize the opportunity and stay there for over a week.

UAE Visa is probably the easiest visa we got. It was expensive, but it was relatively effortless, especially given that we have a friend in Dubai, who served as a sponsor.

Yep, sponsor. If you’re applying for a UAE Visa, you need a sponsor. It can be a family member, a colleague, or a friend. This will make things a lot easier. If you don’t know anyone there, an airline, hotel, or travel agency can sponsor you.

In the beginning, we had a difficult time figuring out the process. There’s just so much info online and they somewhat say different things because they serve their own interest. For example, some UAE-based airlines also offer visa services but they require flight tickets booked with them. Dozens of hotels are also authorized to process visas, but many of them require that book rooms with them (for obvious reasons). In this post, I’ll try to summarize everything so you have all possible options.

WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS GUIDE?

Who needs a UAE Visa?

Since I am a Philippine passport-holder, I had to secure a visa first before entering UAE. Not everyone needs a visa, though.

• If you’re a citizen of any member-state of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), no visa is needed . Here are the six GCC members: Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar*. I’m putting an asterisk on Qatar because although it is a member, its diplomatic ties with UAE and other members have been severed in a rift that began in June 2017.
• Visa-on-arrival is available free-of-charge for the citizens of the following countries : EUROPE: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Switzerland, Sweden, UK, Czech Republic, Lithuania, Hungary, Latvia, Estonia, Ireland, Greece, Finland, Spain, Monaco, Vatican, Iceland, Andorra, San Marino, Liechtenstein, Poland, Slovenia, Slovakia, Malta, Cyprus, Croatia, Romania, Bulgaria, ASIA: Brunei, Hong Kong, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore OTHERS: United States, Australia, New Zealand

For the rest of us, a visa is required.

Note that this doesn’t get affixed to your passport. A regular 30-day tourist visa must be used within 60 days from the date of issuance.

TYPES OF UAE VISA

Travelers visiting the UAE for leisure has three visa types to choose from depending on your purpose and travel duration.

• Visit Visa , if you’re traveling to UAE to visit an immediate family member who is a resident of the UAE (sponsor). The family member must be earning more than AED 4000 or AED 3000 + accommodation. The sponsor should be the one to apply for you.
• Tourist Visa , if you’re visiting a distant relative or friend or if you don’t know anyone there. The regular single-entry visa can let you stay for up to 30 days, although a multiple-entry visa is also available. If you know someone in UAE, it would be faster and easier if they apply for you. But if you have no connections, you can get a visa via an airline, hotel, or travel agency. (More info about that below)
• Transit visa , if you’re visiting UAE for at least 8 hours but not longer than 4 days (including the arrival and departure days). This can also be pre-arranged. This visa can be used within 14 days from the issue date.

Here’s a quick summary of the validity, maximum number of days allowed, and costs per visa type. I’m also indicating a range of prices per type. Rates vary greatly, depending on where you apply.

None of these visas can be extended.

In June 2018, the UAE Government approved the waiving of fees for transit visas for 48 hours. However, I have no idea about details of this: until when it will be implemented or what requirements are needed. The announcement, however, states that transit visa may be extended for up to 96 hours for a fee of AED 50.

Important : In a memo released on June 2, 2017 , Dubai’s Immigration has ordered agencies to stop accepting applications for 90-day visit visas from Filipino and Pakistani citizens for the next 3 months. Not sure if this will be restored in the future but until further notice, this option is no longer available for travelers from the Philippines and Pakistan. Update (Oct 2018): This has been restored.

UAE VISA REQUIREMENTS

The following are the required documents when applying for a UAE visa. These are the basic requirements.

Your sponsor may add more. For example, if you book your visa via Etihad Airways, they will ask for Etihad flight tickets. If you book with a hotel, they can demand that you reserve a room with them. Travel agencies often don’t have these extra reqs, but as I scanned prices, I found theirs to be a bit more expensive. Some agencies ask for flight and reservations too, some don’t. The agency where we applied didn’t ask for these so we didn’t submit.

Anyway, here are the required documents when applying for a UAE (Dubai) visa:

• Clear scanned passport copy (the bio page and the last page). Must have at least 6 months validity.
• Scanned colored passport-size photo . 4.3 x 5.5cm. White background. At least 80% of your face must be visible.
• Accomplished application form . It is usually the sponsor (travel agency, host) who does this.

If you’re sponsored by someone in the UAE , they will also be asked for a copy of their Resident Visa and their Emirates ID (resident card).

If you’re a parent traveling with a minor (18 years old and below), you must also submit a copy of birth certificate of the minor

If applying for a transit visa , a hotel reservation and onward flight ticket are usually collected too.

Additional requirements for visit visa

Additional requirements if visiting immediate family:

• If sponsored by a wife or husband : marriage contract attested from Ministry of Foreign Affairs or UAE Embassy
• If you’re a minor getting sponsored by a parent in UAE , attested birth certificates
• If your relationship with sponsor cannot be proven from family names displayed on the sponsor’s and the invited relative’s passports: Relationship proof attested from the Embassy
• If your sponsor works for a private company : Attested work contract
• If your sponsor is a UAE government employee : a salary certificate

Optional Documents

The following documents are NOT required. These are often ignored, but the travel agency or sponsor may ask for in order to speed up processing of your visa.

• If you have traveled to UAE within the past year , a copy of the entry and exit stamps on your passport
• If you have traveled to the USA, UK, Schengen countries, Canada, Russia, Australia or New Zealand within the past 5 years, submit a copy of your visas.

WHERE TO SUBMIT YOUR UAE VISA APPLICATION

Once you have all the documents, it’s time to find a “sponsor”.

Like I said earlier, a sponsor can be a family member or a friend living in UAE. It will be much faster if they take care of the application. Just send them your papers. But if you don’t know anyone there, an airline, hotel, or travel agency in UAE can serve as your sponsor.

UAE-based Airlines

• Etihad . You can apply here .
• Emirates . More info here .

Most 3-star hotels (and up) are able to process UAE visas. So if you’re already eyeing a hotel, send them an email if they also offer visa services because there’s a big chance that they do.

You may also check their official website. For example, Jumeira Group — which owns and runs the Burj Al Arab, Jumeirah Beach Hotel, Jumeirah Emirates Towers Hotel, Madinat Jumeirah, Jumeirah Living World Trade Centre Residence, Jumeirah Creekside Hotel — provides plenty of visa info on their website. If you would be staying at any of them, you may apply here .

UAE Travel Agencies

In our case, my friend in Dubai who took care of our application went to a travel agency and it went smoothly. We didn’t run into any problem. You can also avail of their services if you don’t know anyone. Here are the details of the agency that processed our application:

WELCOME TRAVELS LLC Tel No. : 00971-4224-3902 Email: [email protected] Address: Al Ghurair Mall (Opposite Rayhaan Rotana Hotel), Deira, Dubai, United Arab Emirates

That’s it! We got our visa after only 1 day. 😍

If you’re a Filipino , UAE is a destination that usually raises a red flag for Philippine Immigration officers. If you’re concerned about getting offloaded, please read this post: How to Avoid Getting offloaded .

Hello here, I’m a Srilankan I need to visit dubai the purpose for work after I visit if I got any job offer ai need to transfer work visa workouts exit UAE so let me know which type of visa I should Apply.

Good stuff Yoshke. As a US citizen I have it easy ;) Getting into Qatar – neighboring of course – was easy as pie. Not expensive, not free, $30 or something like that for us. It was a visa on arrival so the process flowed smoothly. Love those UAE lands. Fascinating places.

hi, Very informative ! btw, im planning to have my visa processed by travel agency in dubai, my concern is that since the they only issue an electronic visa, do you think this is acceptable by the Philippine immigration? coz i read that some were offloaded saying Pink visa or orginal is needed?

Hope to hear from you.

Hi Ann. To be honest, in our case, we didn’t present the original pink visa, just a printed out online copy. We didn’t run into any trouble. However, we also heard stories (other travelers) na hindi daw nga tinanggap kung hindi original. So my advice is to just get the original copy to be safe.

Apply Tourist Visa and Change by Exit again if you got residence visa

hello, po hope u can answer. I want to get my sister here in japan and after her visa here. she want to go again ni dubai by the sponsor of my another family there. is that ok ? to exit in dubai?

Hi thank you for the info very informative and helpful.! Just would like to ask if you also provide security deposit going to dubai? Thank you hope to hear from you soon

Hi. You said a friend in Dubai processed you visa there? Would you know how much? And may we know the agency name?

Hi Banana! Our friend applied via the agency I mentioned in the post, Welcome Travels. She paid 400AED.

how would they give the visa to u? courier?

hi…. i just want to know what is a “PINK VISA”, i got mine with the help of a travel agency and they only gave me a copy that looks like the one you posted on a short bond paper size. is there any other copy? and also is it ok if i fold the paper in an envelope size for easy carrying?

Hi Mia! The pink visa is the original copy of the visa. We’ve heard from other commenters that Immigration asks for this, but in our experience, we just presented a printed our copy of the visa emailed to us and they accepted it. So we’re not sure if it’s really a requirement. If you can secure a pink copy, that would be best.

thanks! also is it ok if i fold the paper in an envelope size for easy carrying? do i have to print extra copies? are you gonna surrender a copy to the immigration officer?

Ask ko lang if nakapag-travel ka to Dubai using the printed e-visa? Tinanggap ba ng immigration dito sa pinas?

Hi Mia. In my experience, they did not take a copy. They just looked at it and gave it back to me. Not sure about folding, but I think it’s okay.

Hi, I’m planning to go to Dubai this coming July 2018. Let’s say my girlfriend process the visa for me, do I still need to book a hotel or accommodation to show to the Dubai immigration? I will be coming from Singapore after a 4 days trip.

Any advise will really help.

hello po! when is the best time to apply for a dubai tourist visa? Me and my friends are planning to go on Nov. 8, 2019. When po ba dapat mag.apply na ng visa?

At the earliest, 60 days before your scheduled trip because the standard visa must be used within 60 days of issue date.

Boss I want to visit Dubai. But don’t have anybody to sponsor me

Hi Jake, sometimes they do, sometimes they don’t. (I wasn’t asked, but Vins was.)

But it’s generally best practice that you have hotel booking in case they look for it.

up up up :)

hi! just like to ask did Welcome travels buy tickets for you too? or just the visa?

Just the visa.

Hi, I posted a comment yesterday and I’m afraid that its been deleted or what not. Anyways, would like to know if you were asked for a Hotel reservation or accommodation when you pass through immigration in Dubai?

It wasn’t deleted. All comments are held for moderation, and it takes time for us to read all the comments as we get lots a day.

Hi. My boyfriend and I is planning to visit her sister in UAE, in Abu Dhabi to be specific. So how many visit visas does her sister needs to get? Will that be 2 also? Or on visa for the me and my bf already? Just asking since we are now calculating for the whole cost for the trip. And we really dont have any idea.

Hi. We have the same scenario but in our case the one sponsoring us is my auntie and my boyfriend will join me. What happened to your application? What visa granted to him? Thank you.

I have no idea either. Your bf definitely should apply for a visit visa because he’s visiting immediate family.

Hi, when applying for the visa, are you allowed to choose a multiple entry tourist / visit visa? I’m asking cause I’m planning to visit my uncle in Dubai, then I’m going to fly to Russia then back to Dubai. I need to make sure I can get a multiple entry tourist visa. Many thanks.

i submitted visa through a agency and he assured i would get visa within 2 days but its almost 3rd day is going to be end still he is saying it is in the last phase and neither giving me the application ID. How can i come to know that he really submitted the application,

hello! thank you for the info. if i were to make certificate of employment as a supporting document for the visa, to whom shall i address it? thank you!

Hi Yoshke, is it possible to get the contact person from Welcome Travels. I really would like to get into a partnership on visa sponsorship. Appreciate your prompt response. Thanks.

Do you still need to apply for a transit visa if it’s shorter than 8 hours?

Hello. this will be my first travel abroad. to be specific DUBAI. I’ll be travelling with my cousin which is 8 years old only. But her parents are both working there. what should i do? P.S: My cousin has been travelling from manila to dubai twice and been stayed there for atleast 1 year and 3 months. Thank you for your honest response.

You will still need a visa. Best if yung parents nya ung magpo-process kasi andun na sila.

But please make sure you also secure a DSWD clearance since you’re traveling with a minor without either parent.

Hi Sir, ‘yung friend po ba na nag sponsor sa pagkuha nyo ng visa ay filipino or UAE national? Upon reading po kasi kapag hindi immediate family ang mag sponsor, kailangan UAE national lang. Is this true po? Thank you and hoping for your response.

Hi Tey, yung sa amin ay friend na Pinoy. Pero this was 2016 so hindi ko alam if naging strict na sila since then.

Hello! I have questions po. I have a relative in Saudi Arabia who can sponsor my visit visa. But I’m really planning to go to Dubai. Is it okay? Or do I need to go to Saudi first before going to Dubai?

I have friends in Dubai but Im planning to get a 90days visa kasi. Any suggestion/s? Thanks po!

Hi Chris, I have no idea kapag ganyang case. :|

Hi Po. Good evening. I have a questions po. This year lang Month of May pumunta kami ng Foreigner Boyfriend ko sa Hongkong, Thailand, at Singapore. And this coming October po pupunta po kami ng Dubai with his mom for 7 nights and 8 days. Tapos doon na po kami magkikita sa Dubai at wala po akong work kasi nag aaral po ako. Ano po ba yung dapat na requirements na e submit ko since I am a student(Aside sa Student ID, certificate of enrollment) and since my sponsor is my boyfriend, Ano po yung mga documents na hingin ko sa boyfriend ko para Magamit ko sa tourist visa or maipakita ko sa immigration officer. Kumbaga ayoko na syang pumunta pa ng PHILIPPINES because malayo na kasi pag nag travel pa sya papuntang Philippines bali 48 hours na in one way, aside sa 15 hours from their home to dubai. Natatakot kasi akong ma offload sa immigration. Thank you. Hoping matulungan nyo po ako. God bless u po.

Hi Saysay! Pagdating sa visa, as you can see sa taas, very straightforward naman ang UAE visa application. Wala masyadong documents na kailangan. Read na lang sa taas.

Mas tricky ang PH Immigration kasi if I remember correctly, Dubai is a hotspot for them. Are you flying to Dubai alone?

Hi, just want to know some details if you know for the one who will go to Dubai with Working/Entry visa. Is it gonna be hard compared to those who have visit visa? Please need some who knows.

Hi lasyl, we don’t know po pag work visa.

Nag email na po ako sa welcome travels and Shabab (travel agent) replied me na sa whatsapp lang kami mag commuicate. But I don’t feel safe replying him through whatsapp. I would like to hear po yung opinion about this. Thanks

Hi Janelle, I have no opinion about it. It wasn’t us but our friend in Dubai who submitted the documents to them, so I have no idea about how they do business. But we got our visa and it was accepted by Immigration.

Hi, do you have an idea how I could get a multiple entry visa. I will go to 10 day cruise with the family of my boyfriend. the list of the route includes Oman, Abu Dhabi, Dubai and etc. You think that the Cruise Company could fix my visa if the Cruise is already booked?

Hi Marie, I have no idea about that po.

hi po good afternoon po..may concern po sana ako..my pinsan po kasi ako na nagwowork sa dubai and gusto ko sana na mgpatulong in order for me na makakuha din ng work dun ang kaso mejo busy xa or should i say wla tlga xang time pra mtulungan ako n mkakuha ng visit visa..tanong ko lng po sna madali bng mkakuha ng visa if in case n ako lng ung mgpapaprocess nun at roughly estimation mga mgkano kya ang mgagastos ska po bka nmn pwede nyo akong mbigyan ng agency n pdeng mgprocess nung visa ko po or any concern n maipapayo nla saken.. thank you

Good day po. pde po ba mg ask kng anung legit agency na ode applyan ng tourist visa for dubai na mei ksama ng accommodation. Thankn you

HI! Is there any accredited travel agency here in the Philippines na nag aayos ng visa?

Hi ELai, meron po siguro pero wala lang kaming kilala. :(

Hi, just want to clarify.

Kung yung expiration ng visa is magstart once dumating na sa dubai? Like yung validity is 2 months (example, Oct na-release validity is until Dec) but then you will leave the ph dec pa then will return January. Is the visa still valid til Jan? Thank you for the response.

I’m a follower of your blog. All the best!

Hi Jheyann, the validity of the visa is different from the duration of stay. The length of stay depends on what you’re applying for. The standard visa is good for a 30-day stay. A 90-day-stay visa is available now too, but I think you have to justify why you need to stay that long.

Thank you so much for your response. I’m enlightened.

Godbless :)

No prob! Happy to help!

hello po kasalukuyang andito po aq ngaun sa saudi arabia..flight ko po ngaung nov.24 with tourist visa travel agency po nag sponsor sken..wla po bang maraming tanong sa immigration dito..mraming slamat po sir sa pag pansin

Hi Raquel, depende po yan sa matatapat talaga na officer. Yung sa amin po, wala namang masyadong tanong.

Hi my bf currently suffered from a serious car accident in abu dhabi, thank God he survived. But I think he is going through depression ever since the accident. He is not in good terms with this family and so he’s been badly asking me to visit him there in UAE. He works there with a single entry, unlimited years visa so leaving uae to have a vacation in the philippines or anywhere else outside uae wouldn’t be a good choice. Best thing is for me to visit him there so he offered to sponsor all my expenses just to get there. What worries me most is that I’m currently unemployed, I just worked as an online marketer but income wasnt good there. Does the uae embassy also asked for some kind of show money? And will they also asked about my work and income? I did have some travel experience outside the country, I was able to travel Japan alone before (which was sponsored by my ex bf) and last month I was able to get a 10yr tourist visa for USA with my parents (but this time sponsored by my parents). Will these visas help me get one for uae? So sorry for the long message, I just want to fill you in what I have and maybe you can suggest something to help get me a visa. This is just so rush for me, if it’s not because of the accident I wouldnt be rushing on visiting him in uae since I have plans of applying as a flight attendant.

Hi Chacha, I don’t think your income matters in the visa application. Your occupation will be displayed on your visa, but they usually don’t ask for proof.

However, even if you’re able to get a visa, you still have to go through PH Immigration, which is by far stricter. If you’re unemployed and your destination is Dubai, you’re likely to undergo secondary inspection because UAE is a “hotspot” destination for them. In this case, you will have to provide proof of your relationship with sponsor and proof of employment/financial capability of your sponsor.

Hello Yoshke,

Thanks for providing information on UAE Visa. I’m planning to visit Turkey this April 2019 and since im only transiting, do you have news kung effective na ung new policy regarding waiving of fees for transit visas for 48 hours extended to 96 hours at AED 50. I plan to have a stopover in Dubai for 4 days. Is it upon arrival in Dubai?

Hi Jeffrey, until now, I have no details yet about it. :(

Sir, question lang.. Mag stopover kami at Dubai for 8hrs and we’re planning to meet our friend (living in Dubai) inside the airport. Do we still need to get a transit visa since lalagpas parin kami sa immigration? Thank you sir.

Hi Quennie, ang alam ko, yes, since lalabas ka ng immigration.

Hi. Even if I don’t have any sponsor in Dubai, I can still apply through the travel agency you mentioned right? Usually 1 day lang ba processing nila?

Hi Helloha, ang alam ko, yep.

Di ko sure though because yung friend ko sa Dubai yung nag-apply for us. She just shared with us ung details nung agency kung saan sya nag-apply.

Hi! sir good morning, me and my cousin are planning to apply visa in dubai tru her sister sponsoring it, 1st cousin po kami by father side, but im illegitimate child so my papers are no proof na mgpinsan po kami, so anu po ba dapat ko applyan na visa? since visit visa is for immediate family at ako po matatawag na hindi immediate family kasi nga no proof. pwde po bang parehas na visa applyan namin ng pinsan ko or iba2 kami ng visa peru isang tao lang mg sponsor at pwde bang sabay kami umalis ng pinsan ko.? slamat po at sanay masagot po itong tanong ko. god bless po.

Hi Amore, di ko po alam pag ganyan. Pero hopefully ung ibang readers namin may idea sila.

Hi Yoshke, I have traveled to UAE (Dubai) last October 2017 but it was sponsored by my employer. I am planning to travel back to UAE but at my own expense. I have relatives working there and I am planning to apply for a tourist visa and look for a job there. I do not want to involve my relatives with my application.

Will it be possible that my application be denied even if I already had a visa before?

Hope you can response. Thank you

Hi Harry, there’s always that chance naman. Pero malaking-malaki na yung probability that you’ll be granted a visa if may visa ka na before.

400AED lang talaga yung binayaran ng friend mo sa travel agency? wala na hiningi na security deposit? at hindi ba hassle sa friend mo yung proseso? nahihiya din naman kasi ako mang-abala ng colleagues just to sponsor me. i am in contact din with 2 hotels sa dubai and both of them are asking for 5000aed security deposit. it’s refundable after 2 weeks leaving dubai, but still a lot lalu na per person yan. thanks!

Hi Pipa, yep, 400 AED lang daw nung nag-apply and hindi naman daw hassle, mabilis lang. And walang security deposit.

Hi! Thanks for your very detailed blog. :) just want to ask if they asked for yoir ITR?

Hi Paolo, hindi po. :)

Hello! I would like to ask, I have a friend she work in Dubai, is it OK if sya po ang mag sponsor sa akin,I’m planning to visit her.she work there for almost 3yrs.

Hi Lyn, when I visited, I was sponsored by a friend too, so I think it’s okay, at least for visa application.

PH Immigration is a lot more complicated, though, so it may be another story altogether.

I got a tourist visa(14days) for my friend from Philippines. I’m working here in UAE. Unfortunately they put Sales Exec for profession. She’s in marketing so her COE says marketing manager. I asked the agent here they told me it wont be a problem and they can’t do anything as the immigration here fills up the data. Did anyone have the same issue? We’re just worried about the Philippine Immigration. She’s a frequent traveler. Have valid hotel bookings , klook booked tours and a return ticket.

Hi Chase, same thing happened to me. My line of work is marketing but my visa stated SALES EXECUTIVE. I didn’t have any problem though.

Hi! Magtratravel po ako via tourist visa to Abu Dhabi and the trip is sponsored by my sister who is working there. I will be travelling with her this Feb. 14 na po since nandito po siya ngayon for vacation. I have a question regarding my visa, it says “Sales Representative” on my profession eh nurse po ang work ko sa Pinas. I asked around kung okay lang ba yun na nakalagay sa visa ko na Profession and ang sabi hindi daw yun pinapansin sa immigration. I am aware na matanong sila sa Ph Immigration so paano po if tanungin ako kung anong work ko ano po isasagot ko? Yung totoo na work ko po ba or yung nakalagay sa visa? Btw first time traveler po ako but I’m traveling with my sponsor. Thanks!

Di ko alam if may bearing sya. Pero yung saken, ang nakalagay din sa visa is Sales Executive kahit na di naman ako ganun. Di naman nagka-problem. Pero di ko alam if di sya issue in general.

What would you suggest po if ever they ask about my job? Should I tell them what’s on my tourist visa or yung totoo po na job ko? Kasi I prepared my CoE and certification of approved leave just in case they ask for it. Marami po kaya silang tanong kahit kasama ko naman yung ate ko who sponsored my trip? Thank you :)

Hi Chase, just want to ask if i still need to get a tourist visa if i will just be in dubai for 4 days before heading to egypt? or the transit visa will do? Thanks.

I would like to ask if what kind of visa that I need to apply if I will be arriving at DXB Airport from the Philippines and I will go to Sharjah Airport as this is the airport going to Istanbul? Thank you a lot.

Btw, I will arrive by 11:25PM at DXB and my flight going to Istanbul in Sharjah is by 4:50Am. Thanks

Hi ,my boy friend is work in dubai he decided to get a visa for me ,what kind of visa he gets. And what is the requirements that ive given to my bf so that he send me a visa and how much the fee .

Hi! I have a partner in life but we are not yet married with 1 child, he is working now in dubai for 1yr. Gusto ko po sana siyang bisitahin sa birthday namin this coming sept 2019. I am working in private company as sales promoter, pero nasa minimum rate lang po ung sahod ko, ask ko lang po kung magaaply po ako ng tourist visa for 2 weeks maapprovan po kaya ako? May ipon po ako sa account ko 50k. Sapat na po ba un para makapagtourist ako?

Hi, how much did you pay for the visa processing? Did they require you to have something like a ‘security deposit?’ I tried contacting hotels as sponsors para isang booking na lang for hotel and visa, but they have this parang security deposit na ang laki.

hi po. bago lng po ako naka pg renew ng passport ko po. tapos one of the requirement p puntang dubai is 6 months validity. ask ko lng po kng ma consider yong passport ko kasi po renewal n mn po yon or hindi po, need ko p po mg hintay ng 6 months? thank for your response.

Medyo di ko na-gets yung question. Paclarify po.

Hi po good afternoon..my friend in Dubai he is working there..at gusto nya na pumunta ako. Sya Ang sasagot ng visa plane ticket.. Basta may passport lng ako. Pwede po ba yon? Thanks

Hi, Will be visiting Dubai real soon. My friend is sponsoring us. I just want to ask. Dito po ba sa PH immigration, my friend already gave me scanned copies or her passport, emirates ID, work documents etc., kailangan pa ba ng letter of invite from the friend? or enough na yung mga binigay niya as supporting documents plus the visa of course.

Ideally, to be safe, mas okay if you have a letter of invitation. But in reality, madalas, they don’t look for this document. Pero if matapat ka sa strict na officer or if pagdudahan ka nila, they can ask for an invitation.

What is a Dubai Tourist Visa?

A tourist visa for the United Arab Emirates is a short-term entry permit approved and issued by the government for international visitors to enter the country. A UAE tourist visa is required for tourism, visiting friends or family, attending events or seminars, or even for recreational purposes. It is valid to enter all emirates, including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Umm Al Quwain, and Fujairah.

Do Filipinos need a visa to Dubai?

Yes, Filipinos holding a valid Philippine passport are required to obtain an approved visa to enter the United Arab Emirates. The Ministry of Interior issues electronic visas without needing an appointment, visiting the embassy or consular office, or paying any fees there. Visit visas are processed online in Dubai by a UAE-based travel agency, airlines, and hotels with minimum documents, fast approval, and an affordable cost.

Philippine Immigration Requirements

Filipinos looking for jobs in the United Arab Emirates traveling from the Philippines require a few more supporting documents, like an OEC or OEWA copy, an Emirates ID copy, a birth certificate, and the tenancy contract of their sponsor to travel. Show money for a Dubai tourist visa may be required at the airport in the Philippines, so travelers are advised to carry sufficient funds, income proof, credit cards, and financial documents while traveling from the Philippines. Jobseekers or candidates invited from family members in the UAE, traveling from other countries (except the Philippines) do not require any other supporting documents. In that case, only the UAE electronic e-visa copy and e-ticket are sufficient to travel.

Travel Tips for Dubai

• All passengers must hold a valid and confirmed return or onward air ticket.
• We recommend applying for your visa at least 5–7 days prior to your arrival.
• Hotel bookings or stay details may be required if traveling on a tourist package.
• Carrying sufficient funds (show money) or credit cards is recommended.
• Purchase your medical travel insurance policy for a safe journey in the UAE.
• Reconfirm with your airlines for the latest news, updates, and travel policies.

Common Reason for Rejection

• Underage female traveling alone.
• Incomplete application with false information.
• Overstay on a previous visa or blacklist a name.
• Handwritten passport, unskilled profession.
• Applicants with previous criminal records in the UAE.
• Previously applied and unutilized tourist visa.
• A blurred passport or any supporting documents.

The above list is a list of some common reasons for UAE visa rejection, but do bear in mind that the UAE immigration authorities do not provide any reason with the specification of rejection in writing. Hence, it is advised for visitors to provide accurate information, clear passport copies, and choose the correct visa category. Technical errors also sometimes cause delays in visa applications and rejections.

Terms and Conditions for Dubai Visa

• Apply for your online tourist visa at least 5 to 7 working days before travel.
• Immigration working days in the UAE are Monday through Friday.
• Visa will be processed after the completion of documents and payment.
• Approval of a visa depends on immigration officials, not a travel agency.
• Housemaid, servant, personal driver, etc. professions may get rejected.
• The rejected visa application will be advised of the reason for rejection.
• The visa application fee is non-refundable in any case or circumstance.
• After leaving the country, update us with the exit stamp on your passport.

You can get the full list of requirements on both the  Philippine Consulate of Dubai website  and the  Philippine Embassy of Abu Dhabi website .

The main difference between the two is that the Embassy requires a Police Clearance issued by the UAE Ministry of Interior, applicable for all visa applicants aged 18 and above. You can order your Police Clearance  here.

Step 2: Bring all your requirements to the Embassy or Consulate.

Dubai visa holders can apply at the Philippine Consulate in Dubai , while Abu Dhabi visa holders can apply at the Philippine in Embassy in Abu Dhabi.

If you are a Dubai visa holder assigned in Abu Dhabi, submit a written proof of your job assignment, so that you can apply in Abu Dhabi (this can be mentioned as a single sentence on your NOC letter).

First-time Philippine Visa applicants need to make a personal appearance in either the Dubai Consulate or Abu Dhabi Embassy between 9:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. from Sundays to Thursdays (Ramadan hours may change).

When you enter the gate, proceed to the information desk and ask for a priority number for the Visa Section.

The Visa Officer will not keep your passport on your first visit. Instead, he/she will advise you to come back on a specific day (usually after 10 working days), which is when he/she will collect your passport for stamping.

Also, you will only pay AED 100 on your first visit.

The remaining AED 160 is payable on the assigned date of stamping.

Step 3: Return to the Consulate/Embassy on the appointed date between 9:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. with your original passport and the remaining visa fee.

Alternatively, you may now ask a representative to submit your passport for you, since you had already made your personal appearance 10 working days before.

Step 4: Collect your visa between 3:00-5:00 p.m. of the same day.

Yes, you need to wait for at least another 3 hours for your passport and visa to be released.

Step 5: Enjoy your holiday!

It’s always more fun in the Philippines!

UAE: 'Feel at peace going home', says one of 64 Filipinos who availed of visa amnesty

H olding a passport in his right hand and a heart-shaped pink pillow in his left, Orly is contented that he can finally see his family in the Philippines after 16 long years. A few paces behind him is Joan, who is equally excited to go home with her three-month-old son.

Orly, 43, and Joan, 35, (and her baby Zayn) are part of the first batch of mass repatriation of Filipinos who availed of the. A total of 64 overstaying Filipinos – 35 from Abu Dhabi and 29 from Dubai – sought repatriation assistance from the Philippine government, and left Dubai for Manila on Thursday evening via Philippine Airlines flight PR 659.

They will arrive in Manila Friday morning and Orly said the first thing he will do is to tightly embrace his two grown-up daughters when he sees them. “They were only eight and seven years old when I left to work in Dubai 16 years ago. Now, my eldest daughter LyCell, 24, is a teacher; and my second daughter, Mona, 23, finished college with a degree in business administration,” Orly told at Dubai International Airport on Thursday.

“All those years not seeing my daughters growing up seems nothing but a distant memory. I’m now at peace that finally I will be going home and will be with my family for good,” he added.

He said he was not able to visit home in Batangas for almost two decades because he had been jumping from one job and company to another. He first worked at a glass fabrication company in Dubai in 2008 then moved to Abu Dhabi. After finishing his contract, he moved to another company. His last official job was in Sharjah but unfortunately, he said, he and the other workers were not paid for some months.

That was in 2020 – at the height of the pandemic – when they lost their jobs and eventually their residency visa expired. Since then, Orly had been staying in the country illegally and had been doing odd jobs to continue sending money to his family back in the Philippines and to support his personal needs.

The last time he checked, Orly said his overstaying fines racked up to more than Dh60,000. “Thankfully, the UAE government announced amnesty and I was one of those who immediately applied for it,” he added.

But September 1 – the start of the amnesty programme – was a bittersweet day for Orly. Because it was also the day his 77-year-old mother passed away. “Internment was supposedly September 12 but I asked my family to postpone it until Sunday, September 15, so I can still see my mother one last time before she’s buried,” he shared.

After everything, Orly said he is content with the way his life in UAE turned out. “Yes, there were many sacrifices – I was away from my family; my wife also had to work as a domestic worker in Morocco – but I’m proud that I was able to provide for my family,” he highlighted, adding: “Both my daughters finished college and they are now employed. I also bought a tract of land, which I’m planning to develop as my retirement place.”

Meanwhile, Joan, 35, is going home to raise her baby Zayn in the Philippines. She worked as a sales staff in Dubai but her company did not pay her salary for some months so she decided to work part time. This was discovered by her employer who filed an absconding case against her in June last year.

Because of the case and her overstaying fines piling up, Joan was not able to find employment. “The amnesty is really a blessing for us,” said Joan, noting: “My absconding case was lifted and I’m leaving the UAE with no fines.”

The amnesty programme covers all types of visas, including tourist and expired residency visas. Those who were born with no documents of the amnesty and have their status rectified. Those who ran away or absconded from their sponsors can also apply. However, those who entered the country illegally cannot apply for amnesty.

The best thing for those who applied for amnesty is that there is that will be imposed on them. They can return to the UAE anytime but with the appropriate visa.

Joan said she might consider returning and working again in Dubai but only when her baby is old enough to be left with her family back home.

Before leaving the UAE, Philippine officials spoke with the returning Filipinos. Philippine ambassador Alfonso Ver also “expressed his profound gratitude to the UAE government for its generosity in waiving fines and penalties; and for allowing Filipinos and other expatriates to leave the country with dignity and the option to re-enter the UAE in the future with an appropriate visa".

Consul-general Marford Angeles also said that majority of the OFWs (overseas Filipino workers) “had previously absconded from their employers and were unable to secure permanent employment in the UAE. Notably, one of the repatriates from Dubai had overstayed in the UAE for 2,118 days. Additionally, another OFW, who departed prior to this batch, had overstayed for a total of 5,218 days in the UAE.”

Aside from the Philippine diplomatic staff, officials from the Migrant Workers Office in Abu Dhabi and Dubai – led by labour attachés Teresa Olgado and John Rio Bautista were also present at the airport to assist the 64 repatriates.
