New Visa Barriers For Indians Planning Stays With Relatives Or Friends In Dubai

New visa rules in Dubai are complicating travel for Indian tourists, particularly those planning to stay with relatives. The revised regulations demand detailed documentation, such as rental agreements and identity cards from hosts, raising privacy concerns. While the added paperwork is manageable for hotel bookings, the changes are proving difficult for family stays.

New Visa Barriers For Indians Planning Stays With Relatives Or Friends In Dubai
Share on FacebookShare on WhatsappShare on Twitter

Dubai has introduced new visa rules that are proving challenging for Indian visitors, particularly those intending to stay with family members. The updated regulations now require travellers to submit extensive documentation, including their host’s rental agreement, Emirates ID, residence visa, and contact details as part of the visa application process.

These changes have coincided with the approach of the Dubai Shopping Festival ((Dec 8-Jan 14)), a popular time for Indian tourists to visit. However, the new requirements, which include hotel booking confirmations and return ticket details, are proving particularly troublesome for those planning to stay with relatives. Many travellers now face the awkward task of requesting personal documents from their hosts, raising concerns over privacy.

While hotel bookings are still an option, the cost of accommodation in Dubai, which ranges from ₹20,000 to ₹1 lakh per night, makes family stays a more affordable choice for many.

However, the new documentation requirements are forcing some to reconsider their options. The reluctance of hosts to share sensitive documents, such as Emirates IDs, has led many to reconsider their holiday plans.

Even visitors opting for hotel stays now face additional requirements, such as providing financial documents like bank statements and proof of identity. These added steps are further complicating travel plans for many.

Despite the frustration caused by the new rules, some travel experts believe Dubai’s popularity as a tourist destination will persist. However, the immediate impact of the changes remains unclear. As more travellers reconsider their plans, Dubai’s role as a top choice for Indian tourists could be affected in the short term.
