Searching for a “3 month” or 90-day Dubai visa? Here is the part most agents skip: it is not a tourist visa you can simply buy. The 90-day visa is sponsored by a UAE resident for a blood relative. We will show you exactly which route fits your situation, and handle the paperwork either way.
The single most important question is whether you have a relative or friend who is a UAE resident and willing to sponsor you. That one fact decides everything — the duration, the cost, and which of our two licensed teams handles your file.

Why a tourism company can’t sell you a 90-day tourist visa. Under UAE rules, the 90-day visit visa exists only through resident sponsorship. A travel agency’s own sponsorship covers 30 and 60 days only. Any agent advertising a buy-it-now 3-month tourist visa is bending the truth — the 90 days always traces back to a resident or a specific airline scheme.
Sponsoring your blood relative for up to 90 days
If you live in the UAE on a valid residence visa, you can bring a close relative for a visit of 30, 60 or 90 days. Our documents-clearing team prepares and files everything with the immigration authority — GDRFA if you live in Dubai, ICP if you live in any other emirate.
Who you can sponsor
Mother & Father
salary from ~AED 6,000
Birth certificate proving the relationship
Spouse & Children
salary from ~AED 4,000
Marriage / birth certificate
Brother & Sister
salary assessed at filing
Birth certificates showing shared parent
Friends can be sponsored too — the salary requirement is higher (around AED 10,000) and the
relationship rules are stricter. Tell us the details on WhatsApp and we’ll confirm eligibility before you
pay anything.
What you need before we file
✓An active Open Sponsorship File. If you don’t already
have one, we open it for you — the government fee is around AED 270.
✓Proof of relationship. A birth certificate (parents,
children, siblings) or marriage certificate (spouse). This is non-negotiable for blood-relative
visas.
✓Your salary certificate or labour contract, to confirm you
meet the threshold for the relative you’re sponsoring.
✓The refundable security deposit (~AED 1,000), returned after
your relative leaves the UAE.
✓Visitor’s passport copy (valid 6+ months) and a
white-background photo.

No relative in the UAE? We sponsor you for 30 or 60 days
If you don’t have a resident to sponsor you — or your relationship documents aren’t ready — Arabiers Travel & Tourism sponsors your tourist visa directly. This is the practical answer for most visitors who simply want a longer stay. The 60-day visa is the longest single stay available without a resident sponsor, and it can be extended once you’re inside the UAE.

Official government sources
Visa rules are a serious matter, so we cite the authorities directly rather than asking you to take our word
for it. These are the primary government pages behind everything above.
No. A 90-day Dubai visa is not a tourist visa. It is a visit visa that a UAE resident sponsors for a blood relative through GDRFA or ICP. A tourism company can only sponsor 30 or 60-day tourist visas, so without a resident sponsor the 60-day tourist visa is the longest single stay available to you.
First-degree blood relatives — mother, father, son, daughter and spouse — plus siblings. A birth or marriage certificate is required to prove the relationship. Friends can also be sponsored, subject to a higher salary requirement.
Yes. The deposit of roughly AED 1,000 is refundable after the visitor exits the UAE and the file is closed, provided no residency violations occurred. It is typically credited back within 2 to 4 weeks.
As a practical guide, around AED 6,000 to sponsor parents, AED 4,000 for a spouse and children, and roughly AED 10,000 to sponsor a friend. The exact threshold is confirmed by GDRFA or ICP at the time of filing, based on your contract and accommodation.
Once your sponsorship file is active and documents are complete, processing takes 2 to 3 working days. If you don’t already have a sponsorship file, opening one costs around AED 270.
Then the relative route doesn’t apply. Arabiers Travel & Tourism can sponsor a 30 or 60-day tourist visa for you directly — the 60-day from AED 689, extendable in-country for AED 1,190.
