Dubai: A visitor to the UAE will only be allowed to make two visa runs at a stretch after which he/she must leave the country, Ministry of Interior officials said.
A visitor can stay for two months and extend it by another month.
If the visitor wishes to stay longer, he/she will have to obtain a new visit visa, exit the country and return.
The two-month stay again can be extended by a month. The visitor will then only be allowed another visa run. The total duration of stay will be nine months.
A ministry official said after the two runs, the person must leave the country for a full month and then return if he/she wishes.
In another decision, companies will not be allowed to sponsor Filipinas under the age of 25. They have to be sponsored by their blood relatives if they wish to enter the UAE on a visit visa, but will not be allowed to work if they are under 25.
