a visit to dubai....UAE nationals or resident, help please!!!?

Question

hi, i want to come to UAE(dubai, abu dhabi or sharjah) for one 2 weeks visit to look for a business partner or a job opportunity:
1- what are the Visa conditions?
2- how much money should i bring with me?

Answer 1

1- like the person above said, if u have a USA or EU/UK Passport or Australian passport, then you can get visa on landing. Otherwise, please note that Emirates Airlines provides visa's for its guests at a nominal fee of 40 GBP(last i checked).. do check up with emirates!

2-Depends really...u can manage for about 300$/day -if u r staying at a budget hotel. ur hotel will cost an upwards of 100$(for a 0 star) and the rest 200$ u could spend on food,shopping and enjoyment.
If you are into only 5 star,then prepare to fork out about 2000$/day for hotel and everything else.

Answer 2

if you have a passport from the USA, Europe you can enter the uae on a touritst visa which can be purchased at the aiport. if your passport is not from one of those countries, you will need a sponsership via a hotel. after making the reservation, the hotel will then fax or email you your visa.

work is generally arranged from outside the country. as in a company offers you a contract while you are still in your home country and once you accept it, they arrange for travel and visa.

as for finding a partner, any business started in these countries must be approved by the sheik and then sponsered by a local. the local will recieve 50% of the profits at least.

good luck
