Free Dubai visa this summer; see who qualifies

Starting this year, tourists travelling to the UAE during summer won’t need to pay visa fees for dependents aged 18 years or below.

The Federal Authority of Identity and Citizenship announced that the fee exemption will be applicable between July 15 and September 15 every year to boost tourist numbers during the off peak season.

The UAE Cabinet hinted of the exemption last September but this will be the first year of its implementation.

Over 33 million passengers have already traveled to the UAE this year.
