I’ve lived in Dubai and it’s fantastic. Generally I am a person who respects the laws of the country that I visit or live in so I didn’t find the Laws of Dubai any challenging. I would recommend Dubai to anyone 👍🏽
dubai is nice place for everybody. no matter what is your background. or religion or race. every body is happy. the law in dubai is perfect. and the police is there to protect you. respect every body and you will be fine.
Some of the best tips on how to conduct yourself when in Dubai! It is easy to fall in love with Dubai. I went twice last year and will be back this year. I am even considering moving there and setting up business but I would need somewhere to go during the crazy hot summers 🙂
Even if you don't smoke weed in uae/Dubai but smoked before you arrived in Dubai and after reaching Dubai and go to medical tests for any need and if they find out anything in your system you will be arrested even though let's say you smoked it in California before flew to Dubai it's really weird law but last year it happened to an American.
I had a client recently who smokes a ton in Netherlands and did the medical in Dubai with no issues, maybe it was a few years ago or the quantity was super high in the blood test
in terms of not wearing shorts to government offices. Is not only Dubai or about Islam, I'm living in Thailand and it's same here, when you are going to government office (e. g immigration) they require you to cover up as well.
Wow, I would love to live where there are no drugs, no half naked butts and boobs hanging out of clothes, homosexuals everywhere with purple hair...cool!
Excellent video, thank you. I was in Dubai in 2019 for three days. The hotel didn't serve alcohol until after a set time in the afternoon. There was no bacon at the breakfast buffet. Otherwise, it felt completely normal.
9:31 that hotel/residence is a private property, so do as you please according to their own rules. Actually... just few days ago I decided that's where I'll get my first apartment. Really like the 3-4br condos with pool on big terrace/balcony. The villas are awesome too but I prefer the views from the condos.
7:12 i dont see the big deal. Alcohol should be consumed in private and designated areas is my belief and that is how it is in Dubai. I do not understand why anyone would want to dress certain way in public, that's stupid. The saying, do as the Romans do is true in every word. You go to Dubai/UAE, you do as they do... SIMPLE. YOU are "invading" THEIR space.
Hello, can I open a personal bank account in emirates NBD and receive funds from Saudi Arabia everyday? is it going to be an issue or bank gonna ask me question if I receive funds everyday or in 2-3 days? what amount do you suggest to receive everyday so that I stay under the radar?
iv lived in dubai for along time and am a muslim. but for a western people its very friendly city. the will accept you and you can drink and wear whatever you like.
In order to avoid making costly mistakes when investing in the financial sector, it is strongly advised that investors who want to improve their financial standing in the markets consult an advisor.
Your approach is correct and shows you have lots of experience but since everybody wants to become rich overnight most coming to the markets newly don’t seek professional advice
Whenever you work with experts in any field you will surely make improvements and when you get in at the right time you will undoubtedly make a profit.
This helped calm me down although I am visiting on the 9th of February which is next week and I am so nervous because I have anxiety and I have a prescribed bottle of Xanax and I'm terrified that I'll go to jail or be denied entry because of it. I've tried to contact various people to get approval or to know what I need to do but that doesn't seem to be any clarity.
Hello, how’d Dubai went ? I have anxiety too ! I want to travel so bad but my anxiety gets in the way. I am prescribe Xanax and hydroxyzine too. Were you cleared to take it with you ?
Can you make friends with the locals as a westerner or do they like to keep to themselves? You did say they’re more reserved, so I’m inclined to think not so much.
Hey, a UAE local here. The younger generation of UAE locals are a lot more open with westerners than the older generation, so don’t expect to make conversations with some elderly emiratis (not saying that its impossible of course, more than often its simply because of a language barrier)
Dubai is one thing... but aren't laws and practices very different from emirate to emirate in the UAE? I mean, it's no secret that Sharjah is a very conservative place. As concerns alcohol, I remember that Umm-al-Quwain was the only emirate where you could buy it in a shop, "off licence" as the British say. But I haven't been to the UAE for ten years, so things may have changed.
alcohol is avaliable in dubai and there is some bars in the uae. but you are not allowed to drive when you are drunk. and you cant drink in public you can drink at home or in bars or discos. if you are a Christian you can buy alcohol from special stores and you have to have a permit that says that you are not a muslim. you can buy whatever you want.
I have a question. How about to use internet to work? I've heard that is too restrictive and people need to use VPN, and that VPN is prohibited in Dubai. I'm planning to move to Dubai, I'll have my residency cause my husband, but I would continue working remote to a company in Europe and I need to use VPN and make video calls with them. Do you think that will be a problem?
Hi, the more I watch you channel to more I like an idea to start my business at Dubai. The city is familiar to me since 2018 when I stayed for 3 months.. and moved out..but there is still what if...
10:15 this will be a problem for me. i LOVE how they dress, so me looking at them they think i am either wondering why they dressed that way or i am too interested and could be in a sexual way, and they don't do too well with that. but no big deal, I'll just avoid it.
6:05 Lol thats not a song. Muslims dont sing...no chants...ew thats cringe...its just call to prayer or adhaan as they say. They the prayer will start they dont need loudspeaker for that but they do for some reason.
Not sure what freedoms you are giving up other than drugs? If you are in the west, don't count on having too much freedom or free speech in the near future.
I lived in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for 20 years. So I know how the Muslim Religion works. They pray five times a day, that's why you hear those chants every now and then. And the black dress that women wear is called "Abaya". It's not actually a dress or gown persay 😅
There is men's wearing speedos briefs on dubai beach and women's wearing thong bikinis at dubai beach. The society is opening up by slowly. There also opening up big gambling casinos in dubai by 2026.
FYI, many men from Arab and middle eastern cultures hold hands and kiss on the cheeks casually as a form of daily greeting. Don’t confuse that with their stance on homosexuality 😅
What kind of consequences are there if they feel like you are being disrespectful to the country's official religion? Like someone preaching Christianity to a Muslim for example?
Can you make a video on the safest and best options for Indians when it comes to buying passports? Also don't want to pay a lot of taxes but don't want to get a passport of a weak country and regret later because India doesn't allow dual citzenship
3Things i like to know more about is it easy to find ecological food like veggies and fruits and nuts there ? how bad are tickets for speeding and how bad is the speeding cameras /radars ? 3 thing is how bad is the airpolution there is it better if yo go to say Abu dabi ? Thank You
UAE is not a place you will find a woman unless super lucky or under the right circumstances. Look up the male to female ratio. Correct me if I’m wrong
Isn’t that really common sense, seriously.. I am sometimes ashamed to be a Westerner. Just show a minimum of respect. Personally, I don’t behave/dress differently at home. I agree with everything you witness and I feel at free as a bird in the U.A.E.
I’ve lived in Dubai and it’s fantastic. Generally I am a person who respects the laws of the country that I visit or live in so I didn’t find the Laws of Dubai any challenging. I would recommend Dubai to anyone 👍🏽
Awesome great to know, thank you for commenting!
Please tell me if two unmarried people can live in a hotel
C an two unmarried people live in a hotel
I don't recommend Dubai - specially coming from USA
Great explanation dude. I came to Dubai for a visit in 2017 from Michigan. Long story short, I'm still here and love it.
Awesome good to know!
I love Dubai I lived there for 7 years it is safe and well developed but it is expensive a bit and hot too.
dubai is nice place for everybody. no matter what is your background. or religion or race. every body is happy. the law in dubai is perfect. and the police is there to protect you. respect every body and you will be fine.
listen to this guy he is saying the truth and his advise is priceless.

I’m going back for the third time and I still love Dubai
Even if you don't smoke weed in uae/Dubai but smoked before you arrived in Dubai and after reaching Dubai and go to medical tests for any need and if they find out anything in your system you will be arrested even though let's say you smoked it in California before flew to Dubai it's really weird law but last year it happened to an American.

I didn't know that. Interesting.
Wow, I would love to live where there are no drugs, no half naked butts and boobs hanging out of clothes, homosexuals everywhere with purple hair...cool!
same, sounds like a dream place to me if not for the heat. Sounds ideal to raise a family....Not sure if I can take the heat tho
Same....but yeah that heat
Excellent video, thank you.
I was in Dubai in 2019 for three days.
The hotel didn't serve alcohol until after a set time in the afternoon. There was no bacon at the breakfast buffet.
Otherwise, it felt completely normal.
thats better for your health
I just started watching your videos and I am addicted ! Thank you so much for so much info, very professional, honest and clear english !
Thank you so much !

Really like the 3-4br condos with pool on big terrace/balcony. The villas are awesome too but I prefer the views from the condos.
How much do you have to pay for that?
It's not a chant - it's a call to prayer or athan in Arabic. It let's people know it's time to pray.
No one cares
We're moving there next year. So excited!
Great video. I lived in Abu Dhabi starting back in 2004 and have seen a big change related to expat life in UAE.
Is Abu Dhabi cheaper than Dubai? How about the lifestyle?
More expensive. Housing is cheaper in Dubai and Dubai is more relaxed.
Subbed after your livestream with Richard Cooper, amazing content! 🔥

The opening already won me over , don't touch me don't look at me 😆
How are there bars that don’t sell alcohol, not much of a bar more of a restaurant

In Abudhabi you can buy without licence even Dubai nowadays

Awwww. What a great video, thank you!
I actually like all these rules!
Thank you. So do i. A law abiding society free of femanism where we all respect eachother sounds like heaven
yeah i prefer lots of these laws too, I really dont like how here in Vancouver on every corner i smell marihuana
I have a question. How about to use internet to work? I've heard that is too restrictive and people need to use VPN, and that VPN is prohibited in Dubai.

is subletting possible in dubai? thinking of renting a place for year to show ties but sublet it to someone while I'm away
officially no but happens all the time
The only problem I have with the laws is smoking weed... Lol 😂 I can't stop living with that funny enough
Love ur content keep it up!
Nice summary!
Im on testosterone Replacement therapie. I use it with a dokter description would that be a problem
Best information ℹ️ ever. Thank you 🙏 very much.
I'd love to live in Dubai. But I'm not independently wealthy. I'd need some kind of job 🙄
5:12 or just do a run to Unisat in Ajman. 😅

Lol thats not a song. Muslims dont sing...no chants...ew thats cringe...its just call to prayer or adhaan as they say. They the prayer will start they dont need loudspeaker for that but they do for some reason.
Watched this video for the second time. I really can’t give up all my hard-earned freedoms
Then stay where you are.......simple!
Not sure what freedoms you are giving up other than drugs? If you are in the west, don't count on having too much freedom or free speech in the near future.
Why do you say cero taxes in Dubai when you have to pay 4% buying a property? Please let's know about that. Thanks
I enjoyed your instructions.
Dubai sounds pretty great
I lived in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for 20 years. So I know how the Muslim Religion works. They pray five times a day, that's why you hear those chants every now and then. And the black dress that women wear is called "Abaya". It's not actually a dress or gown persay 😅
It's more like family oriented country not for the crazy.
Mate, where to you get your shirts from? Your shirt’s fittings are awesome. Pls drop a link to your preferred stores
Or do a video on your shirt collection or your favorite store online or in Dubai
I was wondering the same thing😄
It's Hindu bro, Hindi is the language😂
Do you have to be Rich to move there?
Not necessarily, it's more expensive than most cities but $5-10K/month income is enough to live comfortably.
@@WealthyExpat thanks for your reply are they very strict like other countries about getting the vaccine are they vaccine mandate there?
Sounds great to me!
I really wish we had this dress code in the US😔😮💨
If you're American, you need to pay taxes on any profit over 100k/year made in dubai
if you get more then 100K per year, why dont you pay whatever need to be paid, do you want more money then that ? c'mon stop your greed
one thing no one mentions it do not practice witchcraft or magic its illigal
That really should be a global thing like back in the day .
I rather live in a green area like NA and Europe. It’s not because there’s 0 income tax that I’m willing to go in a desert with that absurd heat.
Could you compare dubai to japan in terms of safety and theft plz ?
Well... They say Dubai is too strict... And yet they live in a country where you can not talk about gender biology... Go figure
There is men's wearing speedos briefs on dubai beach and women's wearing thong bikinis at dubai beach. The society is opening up by slowly. There also opening up big gambling casinos in dubai by 2026.
bikini on the beach is not the same as walking in bikini TO the beach. forget the latter !
walking in bikini even in the most open world is rude, i live in France and i never saw some one walking in bikini in the street :)
What kind of businesses can a person do in Dubai?
FYI, many men from Arab and middle eastern cultures hold hands and kiss on the cheeks casually as a form of daily greeting. Don’t confuse that with their stance on homosexuality 😅
Discipline is the key
I love Dubai ❤️
The fact that we even have to talk about this tells me that this is not a place I want to live.
Lol my question is what is considered “provocative “ for a woman not to wear out there since they are covered from head to toes?
What kind of consequences are there if they feel like you are being disrespectful to the country's official religion? Like someone preaching Christianity to a Muslim for example?
Can you make a video on the safest and best options for Indians when it comes to buying passports? Also don't want to pay a lot of taxes but don't want to get a passport of a weak country and regret later because India doesn't allow dual citzenship
Pakistan
anyone been to Ferrari World ?
France, Spain and Portugal are fun places in the summer
you cant show emotions in dubai i mean no kissing or hugging your partner in the streets.
Crazy
Love the channel but we can't live with restrictions
Don't come its easy
3Things i like to know more about is it easy to find ecological food like veggies and fruits and nuts there ? how bad are tickets for speeding and how bad is the speeding cameras /radars ? 3 thing is how bad is the airpolution there is it better if yo go to say Abu dabi ? Thank You
It’s not strict. It’s normal.
Can u do the video about ur wife that u said u were going to make?
come and listen my friend I hope your channel will be more successful🤲☝️
I don't see any problem with Dubai if you're a respectful person. I'm sure only Americans would struggle.
"Get as drunk as much as you want, just be respectful". How is that possible when you're not aware of what you're doing?
know your limit :D
if you fail, the emirates will kick your ass; because being drunk is not a valid excuse for silly behaviour
Facts 😂
Are you allowed to chat up women in public places? Ie expats
Yes of course
I’m a single guy and hate online dating and used to the western culture but hate all the taxes I am paying
@@HunkyMan777 thanks fo r the heads up - i thought as much
UAE is not a place you will find a woman unless super lucky or under the right circumstances. Look up the male to female ratio. Correct me if I’m wrong
@@22utoo
The male female ratio is only that way because there are so many hard jobs that requires male workers
you can wear what ever you want in dubai. people will accept your clothes or the bikini at the beach.
What about homosexuality? Is homosexuality accepted? 🤔
Plus Islam is very strict with that and most likely will never change .
@@nataliewalters2759 why do we need to change ? why dont you change ? and why does some one have to change ? :)
What is the best low tax country where you can smoke weed in peace ?
If you want to actually make money smoking weed should be the last thing on your mind
Facts , doing drugs isn’t cool you can do far more in life without it!
Isn’t that really common sense, seriously.. I am sometimes ashamed to be a Westerner. Just show a minimum of respect. Personally, I don’t behave/dress differently at home. I agree with everything you witness and I feel at free as a bird in the U.A.E.
Its not Hindi its hindu religion , Hindi is the language spoken in India , if you in this business i think you should you this things
I like Dubai
Successs.
Can you live with your girlfriend? (Not married obviously)
Yes its not a problem at all
That's crazy 😳😳😳
All these rules with severe punishment. Not for me man.
I guess it's a no if you're a proselytizing Jehovah's witness or a Mormon
Mi fai ridere...tutto questo"protocollo"...ma chi sa cosa fanno di "nascosto"...😁
Puffff... Their body's odor are suffering in side the lift.. Carry spray inside your purse

I’ve been investing into crypto for the past few weeks. When the crypto bull run is here, I’ll hit you up 🙏
Mate, just that you know Hindi is a language and not a religion. Hinduism is a right word to use.
