September 18, 2024: The UAE government has increased the permitted duration of stay for visa-on-arrival holders to 90 days for nationals of Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Japan, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Most of these nationals were allowed stays of up to 30 days, except Brazilian nationals, who were allowed a stay of 90 days within a year. There is still some uncertainty regarding whether the permitted duration of stay applies per single entry, within a 180-day period or annually.
