Missing your family back home or want to visit friends abroad? OraVisa specialises in visit visa applications for UAE residents. A visit visa is different from a tourist visa — it is specifically for visiting family members, friends, or personal connections in another country. Many countries require an invitation letter from your host, proof of relationship, and additional documentation beyond standard tourist visa requirements. Our Dubai-based team understands the nuances of visit visa applications and ensures every document is properly prepared. From UK family visitor visas to US B-2 visas for visiting relatives, Australian visitor visas for family reunions to Schengen visit visas — we handle it all with expertise and care.

Not every layover is visa-free. Many countries require a transit visa even if you are just passing through their airport or spending a few hours in the city between flights. Missing a transit visa requirement can mean denied boarding or detention at the airport — a costly and stressful experience. OraVisa helps UAE residents identify transit visa requirements and process applications quickly. Whether you need a UK Direct Airside Transit Visa, a Schengen airport transit visa, a US transit visa (C-1), or transit clearance for countries in Africa and Asia, we handle the paperwork so your journey continues without interruption.

What You Get with OraVisa

• Expert identification of transit visa requirements
• Fast processing for urgent travel plans
• Route analysis to determine if transit visa is needed
• Airport transit and city transit visa options

Dubai is a global business hub, and professionals here frequently travel internationally for meetings, conferences, trade exhibitions, and business negotiations. A short-term business visa is different from a work visa — it covers temporary business activities without employment in the destination country. OraVisa specialises in business visa applications for Dubai-based professionals and companies. We understand the documentation required by each country, including business invitation letters, company registration documents, and proof of business purpose. From Schengen business visas to US B-1 visas, UK business visitor visas to Chinese M visas, we ensure your business travel plans proceed without visa delays.

A UAE visit visa allows you to enter Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and all seven Emirates for any short-term purpose: visiting family, attending business meetings, medical appointments, or exploring the country. It is issued in 30-day and 60-day durations, in single-entry and multiple-entry formats, and most nationalities that need one obtain it through an airline, a UAE-based sponsor, or a UAE visa provider. UAE visit visas are outside the services OraVisa provides; this page explains the documents and rules that apply to your nationality, and if you contact us we will point your enquiry in the right direction.

Planning a trip to Dubai or the UAE? A UAE tourist visa allows you to explore Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and all seven Emirates for tourism, sightseeing, shopping, or attending events. It is available as a 30-day or 60-day visa or as the 5-year multiple-entry tourist visa, and is obtained through an airline, a hotel or UAE-based sponsor, or a UAE visa provider. UAE tourist visas are outside the services OraVisa provides; this page explains which option fits which trip and nationality and which documents are needed, and if you contact us we will point your enquiry in the right direction.

Flying to Dubai soon? Most nationalities that need a pre-arranged UAE visa obtain it through an airline, a hotel or UAE-based sponsor, or a UAE visa provider, and a complete file is the biggest factor in avoiding delay — the most common cause of a slow visa is an application that has to go back for correction. UAE visas are outside the services OraVisa provides; this page explains what your nationality needs, and if you contact us we will point your enquiry in the right direction. GDRFA Dubai publishes a service standard of 48 hours for a single-entry tourist visa, and many are decided sooner; the decision and its timing rest with the UAE authorities.

Transiting through Dubai or Abu Dhabi? Depending on your nationality, you may need a transit visa to pass through UAE airports or explore the city during your layover. The UAE offers 48-hour and 96-hour transit visas that let you leave the airport and experience Dubai or Abu Dhabi while waiting for your connecting flight. UAE transit visas are outside the services OraVisa provides; they are arranged through your airline or a UAE visa company, and if you are unsure whether you need one, contact us and we will point your enquiry in the right direction. Many travellers use Dubai layovers as a mini-holiday — visiting the Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, or desert safari before continuing their journey. This page explains who needs a transit visa and which type suits which layover.

What You Need to Know

• Guidance on which transit route your layover needs
• 48-hour and 96-hour options to suit your layover
• Explore Dubai or Abu Dhabi during your stopover
• Guidance on transit-without-visa eligibility
• Guidance on airline transit programmes

Need more time in the UAE? Visit and tourist visa holders can extend their stay without leaving the country; this page explains the route. Whether you are waiting for a family event, extending a holiday, or need extra time for business matters, the extension is filed through GDRFA or Amer centres in Dubai by your sponsor or a UAE visa company. A visa extension adds 30 or 60 days to your current stay, and must be applied for BEFORE your current visa expires to avoid overstay fines (AED 50 per day). Multiple extensions may be possible depending on your visa type, allowing a total stay of up to 120-180 days. If your visa cannot be extended in-country — for example, if it has already expired or you have used all available extensions — an airport-to-airport visa change is the alternative. Apply early: the timing of the decision rests with the UAE authorities. If you are unsure which route applies, contact us and we will point your enquiry in the right direction.

What You Need to Know

• Extend your stay without leaving the UAE
• 30-day and 60-day extension options
• Filed through official GDRFA/Amer channels by your sponsor or a UAE visa company
• Guidance on timing so you apply before the visa expires
• Multiple extensions available (up to 120-180 days total)
• We point your enquiry in the right direction for the application
• Alternative: airport-to-airport visa change when extension is not possible

When your UAE visa cannot be extended — or when you need to change your visa status — an airport-to-airport visa change is the solution. This process involves a short exit from the UAE via Dubai or Sharjah airport, a quick flight to a nearby country (typically Oman, Bahrain, or a short-haul destination), and an immediate return on the same day with a new visa. The new visa and the visa change flight are arranged by a UAE visa company; visa changes are outside the services OraVisa provides. Visitors use this route whether their current visa has expired, they want a longer stay, or they need to change from one visa type to another. It is faster and more affordable than you might expect.

What You Need to Know

• Exit and return the same day with a fresh visa
• Available from Dubai (DXB) and Sharjah (SHJ) airports
• New 30 or 60-day tourist visa on return
• A UAE visa company coordinates the visa, flight, and re-entry
• Solution when in-country extension is not possible
• Available for all nationalities — prepaid and on-arrival visa holders
