Dubai Visa information required for Spouse Residence Visa?

  • I have been researching and each website gives me something different on what documents my husband needs to apply to get me a spouse residence visa in dubai? Can someone tell me the exact documents that I need so I can get the correct information. Do I need to get my husband to write a letter to say that he will be supporting me and then get that attested? Where does this get done? Do I need my marriage certificate to be attested at foreign affairs and the UAE consulate in south africa? Is it essential to give education certificates for the spouse residence visa, as I dont have? Do I need to get my embassy to write a letter to say that my drivers license is valid? Can the traffic department where you get your drivers license write the letter or must the embassy do it? What is the cost of the spouse residence visa? Can someone send me the application form for the spouse residence visa so I can fill it in and give it to my husband before he leaves for Dubai? I am going crazy here , it seems no one in South Africa can help me and I dont know where to get the exact information from! Please help me!

  • Answer:

    Please relax. It's easy as long as you have all your docs in order. You'll (respective your husband/sponsor) need: Prepaid application form from typing office 2 photographs Original entry permit (visa you entered the country) Original passport Original copy of valid medical certificate Copy of your husband's employment contract or salary certificate, provided that his salary shall not be less than AED 10K or AED 8K +accommodation. Copy your husband's valid residence permit. Attested marriage certificate NoC of your husband's company It looks like a lot, but your husband have the most already or will receive it from his employer. Your educational degree need to be attested only when employment is planned. A letter/permission of your husband is required only if you want to apply for driver's license or take a job:)). For my knowledge only Canadians have to get certification of their current driver's license. IF it should be the same for South Africans, your Embassy will provide you with this piece of paper AFTER you received your residence visa. No online application for residence visa. Your husband can apply for your residence visa as soon as he received his (his will be taking care of the company's PRO and his visa also will cost much more than yours). The costs for your residence visa (only residence) will be: around AED 20 for each translation at the typing office around AED 200 for each application residence visa = AED 300 (AED 100 for each year) medical = around AED 300 - AED 500 depending where you go. The start of your residence visa will depend on which visa you will enter the UAE for the first time and if you plan to leave the country or change your 1st. visa into a residence visa by paying a fee of AED 500. Summit: have you marriage certificate (and if wanted also your degree) attested by MoF and the UAE Embassy in South Africa. Have a bunch of passport photos and passport copies on hand and let your hubby/his company do the rest. And if you think you're done you have to start working on your National ID:)) (different story/subject) Any more headache? Hopefully not:)) In case you have any more questions please do not hesitate to email me. Take care.
