What to know before traveling to the United Arab Emirates – Stay informed with InfoCons – Consumer Protection
Traveling to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) requires adherence to specific entry and stay regulations. Citizens of Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries can enter the UAE without a visa, presenting a valid passport or national ID card upon arrival.
