The decision issued by the Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship in the United Arab Emirates states that the income of the guarantor or host must not be less than 4,000 dirhams per month if the visitor is a first-degree relative, and 8,000 dirhams for second or third-degree relatives. Meanwhile, the host’s income must be 15,000 dirhams per month if the visitor is a friend of a resident, according to ‘Emarat Al Youm’.
The decision also set a schedule for the duration and extension authorizations for entry visas and the authorized stay period. It includes six types of durations and authorizations, aiming to enhance the governance of procedures, establish transparency and integrity, and enable all customers to benefit from visas according to their needs and the importance of the visa to the state and the beneficiary.
