Hello Farida, thank you very much for sharing information with us about living in Dubai your videos are very useful and pleasant to watch, keep going I am sure you will have more and more subscribers because you deserve it 😊
Hi Fadia! Thanks for the helpful info! I see from one of the comment that you entered Dubai with one way ticket. In this case, did you bring your marriage certificate with you or you send it to UAE in advance? I’m afraid the immigration will not allow me to enter with one way ticket.. Thank you!
The marriage certificate is already with my husband which is needed for the entry permit application. I only carry the printed spouse entry permit and passport with the one-way ticket
Hello Farida Your videos are awesome. Can you suggest or make a detailed video on where to live in Dubai ....like areas to live .... Near metro/ buses ... Areas which are cheap and expensive/ areas where particular population of country are more or less etc.
Hello! It’s Fadia 😊 Thanks for your suggestion! Will look into those for future videos. Meanwhile, I have made a few videos about apartment listing suggestions, one of them being studio apartments that are near metro. Please enjoy ✨th-cam.com/video/UDTeT-zHRSE/w-d-xo.html
During the whole visa process I was never asked for my health insurance but it is advisable to have one. The medical charges here are quite high compared to my home country
hi, good morning, i notice you replied almost every one and I think that lovely. i have just a few question my partner (not married yet) got a job at jebel ali and he want to apply for a spouses visa I don't know what are the document required ?
Hey there! Thanks for your kind words 😍 Unfortunately I don’t have the info on your specific situation. We’ve only shared what we know based on our experience, moving here 2 years ago. Some information might no longer apply to current visa application process…
Hello. Thank you for your informative video. I am from India and I am planning to move to Abu Dhabi. My marriage certificate is already in English. Do I have to translate it into Arabic and then attest the translated document or do I just have to get the original marriage certificate attested and no need for translation into Arabic? I look forward to hearing from you.
Hello there, thank you for supporting my channel 😊 No need to translate to Arabic as yours is already in English. You can proceed with attestation. Hope everything goes smoothly for your family..
Hi...Great video. Can u pls mention the time taken betweek your husband visiting Amer Centre for your entry permit and the issuance of entry permit. Thanks
May makakasagot poba🥺 yung papa kopo nasa hospital ng dubai ngayon po gusto ko mag pa family visa. Paano po kaya ang ggawin? Kaylangan po diba ang papa ko ang maglalakd non? Kaso nasa hospital🥺
Hi dear..me (wife) had job here and now sponsrinh my husband and kids...i havr onr employment contravt from dfza thay shows my salary too...is that enough or have to get salary certificate seperatly
We don’t have any other experience regarding this except for my husband’s so we can’t advise much. He works in jebel ali free zone so he had to get a salary cert from jafza on top of his employment contract. Not sure about the process for employment outside of free zone.
Mine was an entry permit with 2 months validity. Once I enter UAE, I have to proceed with the next step of visa completion process within that 2 months. Then only you will get visa sticker inside your passport and a physical ID card (which states the 2 or 3 years validity).
Hi, it’s Fadia. I have no knowledge about online form because I went to apply in person at the Amer Center and they fill in everything in the system for me
Hi Fadia, thank you for sharing all the information. I had a question though. My other half got a work offer from Dubai. And he wants me to come along. Is there anyway I can study in the UAE while my husband be working there ?
Hello Nisha! Since your husband will be working in Dubai, he can be the sponsor for your spouse visa. Once you’re here, I guess you can look for the courses to study
Hi, your video is very explanatory and helpful. Could you kindly tell us when we should apply for insurance? Is it after getting the residence visa and Emirates ID?
My husband started applying for my insurance with his employer as soon as my entry permit is approved, but during the whole visa process I was never asked for my health insurance so I guess the timing doesn't really matter. It is advisable to have one though.
Hey i am suspecting pregnancy so i went for medical today but my xray or pregnancy test is delayed till 25 dec 2023. Depend upon periods. My visa will expire on 05.01.2024 will i be able to complete the process in time ?
In my case the venue for medical test is right next to the Amer Center. So after I received the documents from Amer Center, they just instructed me to go next door. I don’t remember making any appointments, I just walked in with the docs
Hi Fadia, can i bring my family along with me from the first day going to dubai? If yes, can they they come with visa on arrival first before converting it to resident visa? Thanks.
Yes, you can. But of course depending on the circumstances, sometimes a return ticket is required (for the family members). And additional cost for visa status conversion as you mentioned.
Hi Fadia, Thanks for the helpful info. New subscriber here:). My husband has also sponsored me through his company and I've received the entry permit with 2 month validity. But, is it mandatory/must to book a round trip? Will they let me enter UAE with just a single-entry ticket. Please guide, I need this info asap :)
I entered using a one-way ticket after I got the entry permit. Make sure you print it out and show it to the immigration officer together with the passport
As far as I asked at Amer they said I don't need ejari to sponsor my wife. Now I have left dubai to get married, but can someone confirm as I don't have any house on rent at the moment.
As far as I know, you need a registered tenancy contract to sponsor your wife's residence visa. Unless she comes to Dubai using a tourist visa first and goes through the change of visa status later on
Can I get married with different nationality I'm from Pakistan and my girlfriend is from Argentina we decided to marry in Dubai on visit Visa my question is that can we marry on visit Visa and can I get Argentina's visa after married according to the new law in Dubai?
If someone likes your husband has a freezone company - to prove salary, would he need to print the documentation from his own company documentation? Issue it to himself basically.
Sorry, my phrasing in the video might be a little confusing because my brain sometimes direct translated words from my mother tongue. My husband is employed by a company that operates in the freezone was what I meant 😅 so his employee issued the paper for his job offer basically
I’m not sure about student visa. But I think if you already have a student visa, it shouldn’t be a problem. However, if you don’t have a student visa, he can only be your sponsor if you guys are married

Hi my visa was approved but the strange thing is i need to go to UAE within 2 months? Else it will expired. I thought its 2years validity?

In my case the venue for medical test is right next to the Amer Center. So after I received the documents from Amer Center, they just instructed me to go next door. I don’t remember making any appointments, I just walked in with the docs
Hi Fadia, can i bring my family along with me from the first day going to dubai? If yes, can they they come with visa on arrival first before converting it to resident visa? Thanks.
To add, myself will be going with a company sponsored visa.
Yes, you can. But of course depending on the circumstances, sometimes a return ticket is required (for the family members). And additional cost for visa status conversion as you mentioned.

Hello there! Ours was translated into English :-)
What will be the approximate cost of medical insurance
Mine is AED550 per month from NAS
Is it necessary to send documents to uae for attestation before visa processing there
as per my husband's experience, he did send over the documents before moving to Dubai for HR to process his work visa

Girl can go for student visa and boy for working ???
I’m not sure about student visa. But I think if you already have a student visa, it shouldn’t be a problem. However, if you don’t have a student visa, he can only be your sponsor if you guys are married
Mashallah
Let alone the costs but this sounds very complicated and tedious paperwork Fadia. I feel overwhelmed already!
Yeah, I agree. The prep work is quite overwhelming. Take it one step at a time ✨😊
