How Much Is a UAE Tourist Visa?
The cheapest UAE tourist visa is the 96-hour transit visa at $150, and the most expensive is the 60-day multiple entry at $390. For most travellers the relevant choice is between the 14-day visa at $185 and the 30-day at $205 a $20 difference for more than twice the stay, which is why the 30-day is worth considering even for a shorter trip.
Two things drive the price: how long you can stay, and whether you can leave and re-enter. A multiple-entry visa costs roughly $115 to $185 more than the single-entry equivalent, and it is only worth that if you will genuinely return inside the validity period. Most travellers do not.
If you live in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman or Bahrain on a residence permit, the 30-day visa for GCC residents at $200 is usually the route that applies to you.
Which UAE Visit Visa Should You Choose?
Match the visa to the trip rather than to the price. A weekend or a week needs the 14-day visa. Two to four weeks needs the 30-day. Anything longer, or a trip where you will cross a border and come back, needs a 60-day or a multiple-entry visa.
If you are only changing flights and want to leave the airport, the 96-hour transit visa is the cheapest way to do it, though it cannot be extended.
Whether you need a visa at all depends on your passport. A number of nationalities enter the UAE without applying, and others qualify for a visa on arrival. Check the rules for your nationality before you pay for anything, since a UAE tourist visa is not always required.
