How to Renew Your Residence Visa in Dubai

Residence visa renewal steps

1. 1

   Ask your sponsor to renew the visa

   Your sponsor must renew your residence visa before it expires.

2. 2

   Check the medical test requirement

   A residence visa requires applicants who are 18 and above to undergo a medical test to prove that they are medically fit.

3. 3

   Get approval for an early renewal

   If you need to renew your residence visa one to six months earlier for travelling reasons, you must first obtain special permission and approval from ICP.

4. 4

   Check your grace period

   After a residence permit is cancelled or expires, UAE residents may receive flexible grace periods that reach up to 6 months, depending on the resident category. Confirm your applicable period on the authority's website.

5. 5

   Avoid overstay fees

   Visit, tourist and residence visa overstaying fees are standardised at AED 50 per day. Check the authority's website for the current amount before relying on it.
