UAE 60-Day Tourist Visa
Quick answer
The UAE 60-day tourist visa currently costs $234 and permits a single entry with a stay of up to 60 days across the UAE. It suits extended family visits, longer business projects and trips where the return date is not yet fixed, and is often more predictable than extending a 30-day visa.
The 60-day visa exists for the trips that do not fit a fortnight. It is also the sensible answer to "what if I want to stay longer?" — because an extension is a separate decision that nobody can promise you in advance.

| Visa | Typical stay | Entries | Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Short-stay tourist visa | 14 days | Single | $120 |

Who should choose 60 days
- Extended family visits, particularly where you are visiting UAE residents.
- Longer business assignments, project work and repeated meetings within one trip.
- Travellers with open return dates or flexible tickets.
- Anyone who would otherwise be relying on an extension to make their plan work.
60 days versus 30 days plus an extension
A 30-day visa at $156 followed by an extension involves a second application, a second decision and a charge that is not fixed in advance — and the extension can be refused. A 60-day visa at $234 is one decision, made before you travel, with the cost known up front.
For anyone whose plans could realistically run past a month, that predictability is normally the better purchase.
Practical points for longer stays
- Check that your passport validity comfortably exceeds six months beyond your arrival date, not just your departure date.
- Keep accommodation details current — long stays often involve more than one address.
- Note the entry window on your visa as well as the permitted stay, and plan your arrival inside it.
- A tourist visa of any length still does not authorise employment in the UAE.
Frequently asked questions
Is the 60-day visa multiple entry?
The standard 60-day tourist visa is single entry, so leaving the UAE ends it. Multiple-entry options exist but availability depends on nationality — ask us to check before you apply if your trip includes regional travel.
Can a 60-day visa be extended?
Extensions are decided by UAE immigration and are never automatic. Do not build a plan longer than 60 days around an extension you have not been granted.
Is the 60-day visa harder to get approved?
Approval is decided case by case by UAE immigration for every visa type, and a longer duration is not by itself a barrier. Clean documents and consistent details matter far more than the duration chosen. UAE visa decisions and entry permission rest with UAE immigration authorities. No agent can guarantee an approval or a fixed turnaround.
What does the 60-day visa cost?
The current published price is $234, compared with $156 for 30 days and $120 for 14 days. The exact amount for your application is confirmed before you pay.
