The difference between the Validity of a visa, number of entries and Duration of stay of a Visa
Validity of a Visa
Validity of a visa refers to the period that the visa holder is allowed to enter Dubai. Unless otherwise specified, a visa holder may enter Dubai at any time prior to expiry of validity, aslong as the entries granted on the visa havenot been used up. The visa becomes effective from the date of issuance. Itautomatically becomes invalid once its period of validity expires regardless of whether its entries are used up or not. The Dubai Embassy do not extend the validity of an issued visa. A fresh application is needed after the expiry of the issued visa. However, even if an applicant holds a valid visa, he or she might be refused entry by the immigration authorities.
Example: Q: I hold a Single-entry Dubai visa valid from March 20 to May 18. When is the last day I can enter Dubai? A: The last day to enter Dubai is May 18.
Number of Entries of a Visa
Dubai visas are generally issued for a Single or Multiple Entry. The number of entries of a visa refers to the number of times the visa holder is permitted to enter Dubai within the visa’s validity. When the entries are all used up, the visa is no longer valid. Even if there are still unused entries, the visa is not valid either if its validity has already expired. In either case, the visa holder should apply for a new visa if another visit to Dubai is planned. An applicant will be refused entry to Dubai if all the visa entries have been used up.
Example: Q: I hold a Single-entry Dubai visa valid from March 20 to May 18 and have entered Dubai once in April. Can I continue to use this visa again before May 18? A: No, you can enter Dubai only once and since you have already used the entries permitted, you cannot enter with the same visa again. You must apply for a fresh Dubai visa.
Duration of Stay
The Duration of stay of a Dubai visa refers to the longest period the visa holder is allowed to stay in Dubai from the day following entry to Dubai. The Dubai tourist visa is issued for a stay period of 30 or 90 days depending upon your requirements. The Transit Visa is strictly issued for a stay period of 4 days.
Example 1: Q: I hold a single-entry Dubai visa issued on 20 March with duration of stay of 30 days. When is the last day I can stay in Dubai lawfully permitted by the visa? A: The last day is 18 June as the duration of stay is counted from 18 May, the day after entry. The 30 days Dubai visa is issued with a validity of 58 days.
Example 2: Q: I hold a single-entry Dubai visa for a stay up to 30 days and validity until March 12. If I enter Dubai on March 12, the last day of validity, can I stay in Dubai for 30 days thereafter? A: Yes
