Dubai Visa for Egypt Citizens
Holders of Egyptian passports shall need a visa when they visit Dubai or any other city in the United Arab Emirates. It’s a basic requirement, one that needs to be dealt with right at the beginning of planning your trip to Dubai. People from some nations are eligible for a visa when they land in Dubai, i.e. they are eligible for a visa-on-arrival. However, Egyptians traveling to Dubai shall need to acquire a visa before they arrive there issued by the UAE Embassy when they are still in Egypt itself.
