A piece of good news puts a smile across one’s face. This news, however, is going to put your Dubai Holiday Package into action if you have kids under 18.
How?
Dubai has announced a visa fee exemption for visitors under 18 who’ll be travelling with their parents to give a boost to the already flourishing business of tourism in Dubai.
When?
This plan has been in action for a while now and will continue until September 15, 2019.
“Between 15 July and 15 September 2019, tourists under the age of 18 years will qualify for visa fee exemption when travelling with their parent(s) on a tourist visa to Dubai,” stated Dubai Tourism in a press conference.
Because the board understands that the cost of the visa is one of the primary deciding factors considered by families in getting a Dubai Tour Package booked, it has taken an initiative in their favour.
Which All Nationalities Can Apply?
Tourists of all nationalities are applicable to enjoy this privilege, provided they apply for it in advance via UAE National Carriers or licensed Travel Agencies.
The statement given by the officials in the press conference said, “Indian passport holders with a US visa or UK/EU residency visa can also apply online at www.ica.gov.ae.”
Why?
In the words of Major General Saeed Rakan Al Rashidi, the Acting Director-General for Foreigners’ Affairs and Ports at ICA, said, “These facilities contribute to supporting UAE competitiveness as a prominent destination in attracting family tourism from all round the world to enjoy historical places, heritage, culture, and entertainment activities, as well as the hotel and tourist services.”
Dubai has been taking a lot of steps to encourage tourism lately. Earlier this year, the news of Free SIM Cards IN Dubai for Tourists took travellers by surprise and led to an upsurge in the number of Dubai Holiday Packages being booked.
