ANything you want to know about UAE? You ca ask me

I'm from Dubai, UAE born and raised.... So please take advise from people who know better.

It's best to check government websites before coming to a country and know all the rulessss!!!

If you are among the 32-36 countries UK Citizens included, you can enter UAE and have your visit visa upon ARRIVAL and wont need and agency or anyone to sponsor you. DON'T PAY PEOPLE FOR YOUR VISA!

These are government websites:

If you are not of the 32 countries who has this benefit then you'll need someone related to you to sponsor you or have a company here sponsor your visit visa.

THE MEDICAL TEST
Seriously Try and NOT do any kind of drugs or even for a second think you can get away with bringing drugs.
You should also know about the health care facts and you should get yourself checked before entering the country and is willing to work here. If you have TB, Hepatitis everything, AIDS and what not. If you fail the medical test you will be sent back to your country

Please get your certificates especially your highschool diploma, bachelors ect degrees attested. You can also do that here in the UAE as well.

These are the expenses, procedures of different kinds of processes in the labour department. I just linked one that goes to a page where the Employment visas process are explained. There are lots of information there regarding so many procedures so please find the drop down box "im looking for" and skim through it.
