Canadian citizens and residents can apply for a UAE visa from Canada online with expert support at every step. Without any guesswork, we are helping to get your visa through a simple process.
The UAE visa policy is highly welcoming for Canadian citizens. You don’t need to apply for a visa in advance when you have a Canadian passport. You’ll get a free multi-entry visa on arrival with a stay of 90 days within the rolling 180-day period from your first entry.
Many travellers still prefer to get their documents without knowing this. For Canadian citizens travelling with elderly relatives or children, the DXB visa-on-arrival queue can also be tedious, so many choose to arrange a Dubai visa from Canada in advance instead.
The eligibility depends on the passport that you have, but not your Canadian status. You’ll need to arrange a pre-approved visa before your travel if your passport isn’t on the UAE’s visa-exempt list and your Canadian PR card or work/study permit doesn’t allow a visa-free entry on its own.
