Following the recent decision taken by the U.A.E. Cabinet, Maltese Passport holders will, as from 22nd March 2014, be exempted from the need to acquire pre-entry visas to the U.A.E. and these visas will be free of charge.
One need only ensure that the Passport or passport replacing documents of visitors is valid for:
- at least 3 months from the date of entry, for visits of up to 3 months; or
- at least 6 months from the date of entry, for visits exceeding 3 months.
and in the case of Minors registered in their parent/guardian passport:
a Passport will not be required, provided that the parent's Passport contains photos of the minors and travelling with the passport holder.
