Dubai Visa for Bolivian Citizens

• Bolivian passport holders generally need a pre-arranged Dubai/UAE visa before travelling.
• A valid Bolivian passport is required.
• The passport should have sufficient validity for the intended journey.
• Applicants generally need a recent passport-size photograph.
• Travel details may be required.
• Accommodation details may be requested.
• Financial or other supporting documents may be requested depending on the application.
• Personal and passport details must match the submitted documents.
• Ordinary Bolivian passport holders should not rely on receiving a standard visa on arrival.
• Travellers should arrange the required entry permission before departure.
• Holding residence in another country does not automatically remove the visa requirement linked to a Bolivian passport.
• Bolivian travellers living in a GCC country may have different eligibility conditions.
• GCC residence status, sponsorship, passport type and travel circumstances can affect the applicable entry route.
• Submitting complete documents does not guarantee visa approval.

Your visa should match how long you intend to stay and whether you expect to enter the UAE once or more than once.

30-Day Dubai Visa — For Short Trips

A 30 Days Dubai Visa can suit Bolivian travellers visiting Dubai for a short holiday, meeting relatives or making another permitted short-term trip. It allows a stay of up to 30 days and is suitable for travellers who do not require a longer 60-day visit. Always check the permitted stay and entry conditions stated on the approved visa before travelling.

60-Day Dubai Visa — For Longer Visits

A 60 Days Dubai Visa is suitable for Bolivian travellers who need more time in the UAE. It can be a better option for longer holidays, extended family visits or travel plans that require a stay of more than 30 days. Eligible travellers can stay for up to 60 days, subject to the conditions mentioned on the issued visa.

Multiple-Entry Dubai Visa — For Repeated Entry

A Multiple Entry Visa Dubai can suit Bolivian travellers who need to enter the UAE more than once during the visa period. This option may be useful when combining Dubai with trips to nearby destinations or when an itinerary requires repeated entry. Choose this visa only when your travel plans genuinely require multiple entries.

Dubai Transit Visa — For Short Stopovers

A Transit Visa Dubai can be suitable for eligible Bolivian travellers passing through Dubai who want to enter the UAE during a short stopover. Transit options include 48-hour and 96-hour visas. These are generally single-entry visas and require confirmed onward travel through the applicable transit visa channel.

Urgent Dubai Visa — When You Need Priority Processing

An Urgent Dubai Visa is suitable for Bolivian travellers who need priority processing because their departure date is approaching. Urgent processing may be available for eligible 30-day and 60-day visa applications. It provides faster handling than the standard service, but visa approval and processing time are not guaranteed. Applicants should still apply as early as possible to allow time for additional checks or document requests.

Bolivian travellers can select a Dubai visa according to the amount of time they plan to spend in the UAE. The 30-day Dubai visa is priced at AED 451, while the 60-day Dubai visa costs AED 900 for applicants who require a longer stay.

The amount payable depends on the visa service selected. Urgent, multiple-entry, transit and other Dubai visa options have different prices and should be checked separately before applying. Review the visa duration, entry type and final service cost before completing your payment.

Bolivian applicants should prepare clear, accurate documents before submitting their Dubai visa application from Bolivia.

The main documents can include:

• Recent passport-size photograph
• Applicant’s personal and contact details

Your Bolivian passport should normally remain valid for at least six months from the intended date of entry into the UAE.

Make sure:

• The passport is not damaged.
• All information is clearly readable.
• Your name is entered exactly as shown in the passport.
• Your passport number is entered correctly.
• Uploaded passport images are clear and complete.

Do not submit blurred, cropped or altered passport images.

Provide a recent colour passport photograph with a plain white background.

Your face should be clearly visible. Avoid:

• Shadows
• Blurred photographs
• Cropped facial features
• Poor-quality scans

A new photograph may be requested if the submitted image does not meet the required standard.

Documents for Children

A child travelling from Bolivia may require their own visa and travel documents.

Depending on the child’s circumstances, additional documents can include:

• Birth certificate
• Parent or guardian passport copies
• Parent or guardian details
• Proof of relationship
• Consent or supporting documents where relevant

The exact requirements can vary depending on whether the child travels with both parents, one parent or another guardian.

Additional Documents That May Be Requested

An applicant may be asked for further documents because of their travel profile or individual application.

These could include:

• Bank statements or evidence of sufficient funds
• Confirmed hotel reservation
• Host or accommodation details
• Previous UAE travel information
• Additional identification documents
• Employment information
• Supporting travel evidence

Provide requested documents promptly to avoid unnecessary processing delays.

Visa Approval Is Subject to Immigration

Submitting all requested documents does not guarantee visa approval. The final decision remains with the relevant UAE immigration authority.

Processing Time

Standard 30-day and 60-day applications generally take around 3–5 working days once the complete application is ready for processing. Additional verification, public holidays, document requests or immigration processing can increase the timeframe.

Dubai Visa Fee and Refund Conditions

Refund eligibility depends on the stage of the application. Once the applicable visa fee has been submitted to the authority, it may become non-refundable. Applicants should review the cancellation and refund conditions before paying.

Security Deposit: Company Service Policy

There is generally no security deposit for the 30-day Dubai visa under the applicable service policy.

For the 60-day Dubai visa, a refundable AED 1,500 security deposit may apply according to the company’s service conditions. The security deposit is separate from the visa fee and is handled according to the applicable refund terms.

For complete details about the security deposit, cancellations, refunds and other service conditions, review the Booking Policy, Terms & Conditions, and Privacy Policy before completing your application.
