Do Tajik citizens need a visa for Dubai?
Tajikistan is on the UAE's visa-required list, so Tajik citizens need a visa before they travel. You apply online and the visa is issued as an e-visa (PDF) that you show at check-in and on arrival. There's no embassy visit.
Your passport must be valid for at least six months from your arrival date.
Entry rules are based on the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs visa exemption list, checked on 21 October 2026. Rules can change, so confirm with ICP or your airline before you travel. MOFA list · ICP

Single or multiple entry: which do Tajik citizens need?
A single-entry visa ends when you leave the UAE. The 30 Days Visa (single entry) costs USD 160.
A multiple-entry visa lets you leave and come back while it's valid, for example a day trip to Oman or a stopover on your way home. The 30 Days Visa (multiple entry) costs USD 300.
If you're only flying in and out once, single entry is the better value.
Visa validity vs length of stay
These are two different limits. On the 30 Days Visa, validity is 60 Days: the window from the issue date in which you must enter the UAE. The stay is 30 Days: how long you can remain after you arrive.
Plan your travel date inside the validity window, and leave or extend before your stay runs out to avoid overstay fines.
Why Dubai visa applications from Tajikistan get delayed or refused
UAE immigration makes the final decision, and no agency can guarantee approval. Most delays we see come from avoidable issues:
- Blurry, cropped or glare-covered passport scans.
- A photo that isn't recent, has a coloured background or shows glasses or shadows.
- A name spelled differently from the passport's machine-readable line.
- A passport with less than six months' validity left on the arrival date.
- A previous overstay, absconding report or unresolved case in the UAE.
- Applying only a day or two before the flight.
After your visa is approved
- Check that the name, passport number and nationality on the e-visa match your passport exactly.
- Keep a printed or saved copy; airlines check it before you board.
- Immigration officers in Dubai may ask for your return ticket and hotel booking or host's address.
- Note your last day of stay and leave or extend before it to avoid overstay fines.
- Track your application any time on our Visa Status page with your application ID.
Paying from Tajikistan
All our prices are in US dollars (USD). If your card is in TJS, your bank converts the amount and may add a foreign transaction fee, so the final charge in TJS depends on your bank's rate.
