The UAE’s 5-year multiple entry tourist visa is a great opportunity for long-term travel flexibility. It allows multiple visits within a year, with each visit permitted up to 90 days, and extendable for another 90 days in some cases.

Here are the full requirements, process, and common questions answered:

📌 Visa Requirements:

To apply for this visa, the following documents and conditions are required:

• 🛂 Clear passport copy (passport must be valid for at least 6 months)

• 📸 Passport-size photo

• 🏦 6 months' bank statement showing transactions equivalent to USD 4000 (equivalent in any currency)

• ✅ Travel insurance (included in the package)

• ⏳ Processing time is around 10 working days

• 🔁 Within each year, the holder can stay in UAE for up to 90 days, multiple times, depending on their travel plans

💰 Visa Cost and Refund Details:

• Total Fee: AED 5,500 (for Pakistani and Bangladeshi nationals)

• AED 3,000 is refundable

FAQs about the Refund:

• ❓ Is AED 3,000 refunded only after 5 years?
  No. You can get the refund earlier if you cancel or change the visa before 5 years.

• ❓ Who refunds the AED 3,000 — your office or GDRFA?
  The refund of AED 3,000 is processed by GDRFA (General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs), not the office.

🔒 Guarantee and Reliability:

• ❓ Is it guaranteed for Pakistani citizens?
  Yes, the visa is issued on a “guarantee done” basis, which means strong assurance of approval as long as all documents and criteria are met.

🧾 Bank Statement Clarification:

• ❓ Do I need to have USD 4000 balance at the time of applying, or just show income flow?
  No need to have USD 4000 in the account at one time. The 6-month statement should reflect regular income and activity totaling at least that amount.

💼 All-Inclusive Fees:

• ❓ Does the AED 5500 cover everything including office charges?
  Yes, AED 5,500 is all-inclusive, covering the visa, insurance, application processing, and office service fees.

I am a Pakistani national currently residing in Saudi Arabia, and I’m interested in applying for the 5-year UAE multiple-entry tourist visa. I would appreciate it if someone could clarify the following points:

1. Eligibility and Application Requirements:

   • Can Pakistani passport holders apply for the 5-year tourist visa while living in Saudi Arabia?

   • What are the required documents, such as passport copies, photographs, proof of income or bank statements, travel insurance, etc.?

   • Is there a minimum bank balance or income threshold to be eligible?

2. Stay Duration and Extension Options:

   • Although each visit allows up to 90 days, is it possible to extend the stay within the UAE for a longer period (such as an additional 90 days)?

   • Are there any exit-and-return or in-country visa change options to stay beyond the initial 90 days?

3. Chances of Approval for Pakistani Citizens:

   • Since Pakistani nationals often face challenges with UAE visa approvals, is the 5-year visa more accessible or guaranteed for Pakistanis living abroad (like in Saudi Arabia)?

   • Are there any recent success stories or official clarifications regarding this?

Any insights, especially from those who have recently applied or have handled similar cases, would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
