Are you planning to visit the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for a mission or official assignment?

The Mission Visa is granted to professionals coming to the UAE for short-term projects with local companies. It designates them as probationary workers during this period.

Issuance of UAE Mission Visa

This type of visa is typically issued to individuals traveling to the UAE for business-related activities, official government missions, attending conferences, participating in seminars, or conducting certain short-term assignments.

Getting a Mission Visa

To apply for a Mission Visa, the applicant must be outside the country, and upon its expiry, they must exit the country promptly. If an employee needs a second mission visa, they can apply for it after leaving the country and canceling their labor card.

The entire process of obtaining a Mission Visa, from applying for the visa quota to receiving the Labor Card and commencing work in the UAE, may take up to 4 weeks to complete.
