Hey,
I heard from somebody that having a resident card of any GCC country makes you eligible for a dubai visa on arrival. Can anyone of you confirm this? has somebody utilized it before?
Are there any ifs and buts to this ??
Thanks in Advance.
regards,
Harshit

Not all resident cards would enable you to get a visa on arrival facility, your occupation would have to be in the allowed list.
People in a white-collared job, shouldnt have a problem, provided the same reflects in their labour card.
Check with your company PRO or call up the UAE Embassy. If your in the technician category, you would have to get a tourist visa before-hand.

GCC residents having certain categories of visa can get visa on arrival. Otherwise also you can apply through online, or via Marhaba Services, or through any of UAE based airline which you will use.

and your visa needs to have been issued at least 6 months ago
and to be valid for min. 6 more month
for KSA you need to have a exit-and-reentry permit
