Home  Dubai/UAE Visa, Insurances
|
For the UAE, a valid visa is required. Nationals of many countries entering the country as tourists or for business can obtain a free 1-month visa when arriving in the country (e.g. at the airport). As an intern, you obviously plan to work in the country, thus a working visa should be obtained. The application for this sort of visa has to be brought underway by your (future) employer, accordingly you should budget sufficient time prior to the start date for this. In reality things might be handled a bit differently by your employer, make sure to check beforehand. A company in the UAE usually is entitled to a certain quota of visa for a specific time period, depending on the office size. These visa usually have a validity of 3 years. When leaving the country, your passport should be valid for another 6 months. A preliminary passport for some countries is also accepted. Some sources suggest that if your passport shows signs of travelling to Israel, you might face problems when entering the UAE. In fact, as an Israeli national you might not be allowed into the country. When staying for a longer period abroad, you should make sure that you have the necessary insurance, such as an overseas health insurance. Depending on the country and on the service package, prices fluctuate widely.
