Six Major Steps for a Dubai Study Visa
Getting a Dubai study visa includes 6 major phases.
Step 1: Get Admission and Pay Tuition Fees
Your journey begins with selecting and securing admission to a recognized institution in Dubai. Once accepted, you must pay the required tuition fees to initiate the visa process.
Step 2: Apply for Entry Permit
Your chosen institution will apply for a student entry permit through the ICP or GDRFA portals. This official permit authorizes your entry into the UAE to begin studies.
Step 3: Complete Pre-Arrival Medical
You must undergo a mandatory medical fitness test from a UAE-approved clinic. This includes a physical examination and lab tests, as required for all residence visas.
Step 4: Receive Entry Permit
Once your documents and application are approved, an entry permit is issued (typically within 2 to 4 weeks), allowing you to travel to Dubai.
Step 5: Submit Passport and Biometrics
Upon arrival in Dubai, your passport and entry documents are submitted to GDRFA for stamping. Biometric data will be collected for your Emirates ID.
Step 6: Receive Residence Visa and Emirates ID
You’ll receive your student residence visa valid for one year (renewable annually), along with your Emirates ID. You are now fully authorized to live and study in Dubai.
