Document checklist
The usual documents for a United Arab Emirates application from Pakistan. Your exact list depends on your visa category and circumstances, the team confirms it with you.
- Passport valid for at least 6 months
Your passport must be valid for the period the destination requires and have blank pages for the visa. Renew it first if it is close to expiry or damaged.
- Recent passport-size photograph on a white background
Your passport must be valid for the period the destination requires and have blank pages for the visa. Renew it first if it is close to expiry or damaged.
- CNIC copy
A clear copy of your computerised national identity card confirms your identity and matches the details in your passport and family records.
- Confirmed return flight booking
A flight reservation or travel plan shows your intended dates. Many embassies prefer a reservation rather than a paid ticket until the visa is decided.
- Hotel booking or host’s address and documents
If you are visiting family or friends, an invitation letter and copies of your host’s documents explain the purpose of your visit and where you will stay.
- Bank statement for the last 3–6 months (where asked)
Recent bank statements show that you can pay for the trip and that your finances are stable. Statements are usually stamped by the bank and should match the income you declare.
Assistance fee and processing
Assistance fee: PKR 4,000 per traveller. Government visa fees, appointment and service-centre charges are separate.
UAE visas are issued by the UAE authorities, usually through an airline or licensed agency. Processing times vary.
Common reasons files are delayed
General guidance, not legal advice.
Missing or unclear documents
A missing page, an unstamped bank statement or a blurred copy can stop a file until it is corrected. Check every item on the checklist before you submit.
Information that does not match
Names, dates and figures should be the same in your form, passport, bank statements and letters. Small differences can lead to extra questions.
Funds that are hard to explain
Large deposits shortly before applying, without an explanation, often raise questions. Keep records that show where money came from.
Applying too late
Appointment waiting times and processing can take longer in peak seasons such as summer holidays and before Ramadan. Apply well before your travel date.
Purpose of travel not clear
If the file does not show why you are travelling and why you will return, officers may ask for more. A clear itinerary and supporting letters help.
