While the application process for a visit visa is simple and straightforward, there are a number of factors to take into consideration. Khaleej Times has outlined seven reasons why any applicant's visa may be rejected, and they're definitely worth looking into.
- Hand written passports will automatically be rejected by the UAE Immigration.
- If an applicant has previously held a UAE residence visa and has left the country without cancelling said visa, a visit visa may be rejected. To get approval, a PRO will have to go to the immigration department and clear the previous residency visa.
- If an applicant was granted a UAE visit visa but didn't enter the country, the previous visa must be cleared by a PRO before a new visa can be issued.
- Applicants who were granted a UAE employment visa but did not enter the country must have their employment visas cleared by immigration in order to be able to enter the country.
- Visa applicants with previous criminal offences, fraud or misconduct committed in the UAE will not be allowed to return.
- Visa applications with errors in name, passport number, and profession code will see a delay in approval, or result in rejection of the passport.
- When applying online, ensure that passport copy scans are clear, not blurred, as this may cause a delay in approval, or the visa may be rejected altogether.
Please note that visa rules are subject to change and that this is a general guide. Refer to the UAE embassy or consulate in your country for further information.
