    The UAE, the land of royals, has been a centre of attraction for most of India, and every year, most Indians migrate there to enjoy its royal life. Because of this attraction among Indian nationals, the UAE government officials have introduced a visa exemption for nationals who hold residency in the European Union, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America. 

    If you live either in the European Union, United Kingdom, or in the United States of America and you are a citizen of India, we shall go on in this article to share with you everything concerning the new policy of visa exemption.

    Key Features of this Visa Exemption for Indian Nationals 

    The authorities of the UAE issue visas on arrival to Indian citizens who happen to possess residency documents issued by the United Kingdom, European Union and the United States of America. However, some of these additional features of the new policy include the following.

    1. Eligibility 

    Indian residents who have a legal permanent residency, a green card, or a passport issued by the UK, USA, or EU immigration authorities will be given a visa upon arrival.

    1. Duration 

    Indian nationals have been given two choices by UAE authorities: they can choose to stay in the country for 14 days (with a visa extension) or 60 days (without one). 

    1. Extension 

    Indian people can extend their visa if they decide to stay in the UAE for 14 days. 

    1. Application Process 

    The purpose of this visa exemption was to do away with the drawn-out application procedure. Travel preparation time is shortened because there are no prerequisites for pre-approval or a prior application process.  

    Benefits of Visa-on-Arrival for Indian Nationals 

    One of the main benefits of visa-on-arrival for Indian Nationals is its flexibility. But apart from all of these, here are some other benefits that you can get from this visa program: No Need for Pre-Approval.

    1. No-Need of Pre-Approval 

    Indian nationals are no longer required to make a sophisticated application for it; they also do not have to wait for months for its approval. This visa is issued once they arrive at the airport, thus making the process much easier and smoother.

    1. Multiple Entry Options 

    The Visa-on-arrival allows its holder to typically stay in UAE for 14 days with an extension of 14 days. 

    1. Facilitated in Travelling for Business

    Many Indian professionals who have business in mind when visiting the UAE may benefit from this accelerated process of upgrading their capacity to hold meetings or conferences without delay.

    How to Get the Visa-On-Arrival? 

    Getting the visa on arrival is straightforward if you fulfil the eligibility requirements. Here are the steps to obtain a visa-on-arrival in the UAE. 

    1. Arrival at the UAE Airport 

    Once you land at the UAE airport, you must look for the visa-on-arrival counters. 

    1. Prepare Documentation 

    After that, you must present your required documents to the immigration officer. A few of these documents include a valid passport that has six months' validity from the UK, USA, or European Union. Other accepted documents include a valid permanent residency, green card, or another valid visa.

    1. Fee Payment 

    Now, following this, you will be required to pay application fees. These can be paid in cash or through a card.

    1. Visa Issuance 

    Then, once your profile has been verified successfully, you will receive your visa on arrival to stay in the UAE for 14 days. Also, it carries an extendable duration of 14 days.

    Conclusion 

    The approach of visa-on-arrival is revolutionary for Indian tourists, offering simplicity and flexibility that has never been offered before. The UAE has, in cases of business, pleasure, and family visits, made the process more straightforward for Indian nationals who already hold a visa or residency in some important countries. Researching the most recent changes to this regulation before your trip to the UAE is a brilliant idea if you want to make your entry hassle-free and easy.
