Who is eligible for a UAE job seeker visa?

Foreign nationals who want to look for employment in the country can apply for a UAE job seeker visa. The country has introduced a new entry permit called the job seeker visa, which is also known as the job exploration visa.

 

The UAE job seeker visa was introduced to attract skilled professionals to explore the country's job opportunities. Unlike other visas, it does not require sponsors or a host and can be applied for directly. Foreigners are granted a visa that allows them to apply for a jobseeker visa with a validity of 60, 90, or 120 days.  

 

The UAE jobseeker visa states that it can be obtained along with other entry visas for either single or multiple entries. These visas will remain valid for 60 days from the date of issuance and can be renewed for similar periods.
