Hi All!

Some help is needed!

I am joining my hubby to be soon in Ras al Khaimah.
I will get my visit visa upon arrival at Dubai airport, do I need to book a return flight or could it be a one way only? (I'm flying from the Netherlands)
If I do need a return ticket, could the return date be outside of my visit visa 30 day allowance?

Short after my arrival in the UAE we are planning to go to a beautiful island to get married.
After we return we should process the Spouse visa... How does this work?
I assume on my return from this island I will get another visit visa stamp?! Valid for 30 days from that date...

Does the immigration at the airport ask many questions? If so, any tips? Do I need to tell them where I will be staying etc?

Thanks so much in advance for all your help!
I hope without worrying about this, I will sleep better!

Hi Eva,

u can come by one way air ticket only no problem about that, then u have 30 days in the UAE.
in the airport immigration officers are not asking any question at all.
and they are not asking where u will stay or an address in UAE.

Congratulation and wish u a happy marriage...

The immigration in Dubai won't ask to see your return ticket, but I doubt very much if they'll let you check in at the airport without a return ticket if you don't already hold a residence visa. The date of the return doesn't matter.

There is no such thing as a Spouse visa in the UAE. Your husband-to-be will apply as the sponsor of your residence visa. In order to do this you will need to have your marriage certificate notarized and attested in the country of issue.
