The UAE just made it easier for people living there to invite friends and family over for a visit. It’s a new online system that lets residents sponsor visits of up to 90 days. This was announced by Maj-Gen Suhail Saeed Al Khaili and the idea is to help people connect and let visitors see more of what the UAE has to offer. Basically it’s now simpler for residents to host folks for shorter visits.
Using the online system, residents in the UAE can start the visa application for their friends and family. This should help bring more tourists to the UAE so they can experience the culture and see the sights. Residents just go to the ICP website and put in the details of who they want to invite. This makes the whole process much more simple and quicker for residents wanting to have their loved ones visit for a while.
The goal of this online process is to make getting visas easier and more modern. With a website that’s easy to use the UAE hopes that more people will visit and experience the country promoting both culture and tourism. This change is good for both residents and visitors making it way easier to get those short-term visit visas that are up to 90 days.
