Dubai Visa For Indonesian Citizens

Standard Indonesian Passport Holders

Ordinary Indonesian passport holders are currently included under the visa-on-arrival category for entry into the UAE. This means eligible travellers generally do not need to obtain a standard tourist visa before travelling solely because they hold an Indonesian ordinary passport.

However, admission remains subject to immigration checks upon arrival.

Visa on Arrival Eligibility

Visa on arrival allows an eligible traveller to complete the relevant immigration process when entering the UAE instead of arranging a standard tourist visa in advance.

Travellers should ensure that:

• Their passport meets the required validity conditions.
• Their passport is in good physical condition.
• Their travel details are accurate.
• They meet any onward or return travel requirements.
• They can provide accommodation or other supporting travel information if requested.
• Their intended stay complies with the permission granted at immigration.

Visa-on-arrival eligibility should always be checked again before travelling because immigration rules may change.

Special Eligibility Conditions

Some Indonesian travellers may have different entry options depending on the visa, residence permit or travel document they hold from another country.

Airline-operated pre-approved UAE entry facilities may also apply to qualifying Indonesian nationals holding certain valid residence permits or visas from countries such as the United States, United Kingdom, EU member states, Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea or Singapore. Conditions differ by route and supporting document.

Do not assume that possessing a foreign visa or residence permit automatically provides a particular UAE visa category. Check the conditions applicable to your passport and travel route before departure.

A pre-arranged Dubai visa is not required for every Indonesian passport holder, but it may be suitable depending on your travel circumstances, intended stay or visa requirements. If you need a pre-arranged visa, choose an option that matches the duration and purpose of your trip.

30-Day Dubai Visa — For Short Trips

A 30-day Dubai visa is suitable for travellers who need a pre-arranged visa for a shorter stay in the UAE. It can be used for holidays, visiting family or friends, short business visits, events, meetings or other personal travel. The permitted stay can be up to 30 days, subject to the conditions mentioned on the issued visa.

60-Day Dubai Visa — For Longer Visits

A 60-day Dubai visa is suitable for travellers who need more time in the UAE. It can be considered for longer holidays, extended family visits, personal travel or business-related stays within the permitted visa conditions. The visa can allow a stay of up to 60 days, depending on the visa issued.

Multiple-Entry Dubai Visa — For Frequent Entry

A multiple-entry Dubai visa can be suitable for travellers who need to enter and leave the UAE more than once during the approved visa period. It can be useful for travellers combining Dubai with other destinations or making repeated business or personal visits. Always check the number of permitted entries, visa validity and allowed stay on the issued visa.

Dubai Transit Visa — For Short Stopovers

A Dubai transit visa can be suitable for travellers with a short stopover who need permission to enter the UAE. The available options include 48-hour and 96-hour transit visas, which are generally arranged through UAE-based airlines. The visa must be processed and approved before entry where required.

Urgent Dubai Visa — When You Need Priority Processing

An Urgent Dubai Visa can be considered by travellers who require a pre-arranged visa closer to their travel date. This service provides priority processing assistance, but it does not guarantee visa approval or a fixed processing time. Travellers should avoid making non-refundable bookings until their required travel permission has been confirmed.

Not every Indonesian traveller needs to purchase a pre-arranged tourist visa, as ordinary Indonesian passport holders may be eligible for visa on arrival. However, travellers whose circumstances require a pre-arranged visa can choose from the available paid visa services.

For eligible applicants, a 30-day Dubai visa costs AED 550, while a 60-day Dubai visa costs AED 850. Before paying for either option, confirm that a pre-arranged visa is necessary for your journey and select the duration that matches your intended stay.

Applicants choosing the 60-day service should also account for the separate AED 1,500 security deposit required under the applicable service policy. The security deposit is additional to the visa fee. Final charges can vary according to the selected service and individual application requirements.

Document requirements depend on whether you are travelling under visa-on-arrival eligibility or submitting a pre-arranged visa application.

For a pre-arranged application, commonly requested documents can include:

• Clear passport biodata page
• Recent passport photograph
• Applicant details
• Return or onward travel information where required
• Accommodation information where required
• Supporting travel documents
• Additional documents requested for the individual application

Passport Requirements

Your passport should:

• Be valid for the required period for your journey.
• Be readable and undamaged.
• Clearly show your personal information.
• Match the information entered in the application.
• Belong to the person applying for the visa.

Thedubaivisitvisa.com generally requires applicants using its tourist visa service to provide a passport with at least six months’ validity.

Photograph Requirements

Provide a recent, clear colour photograph.

The image should:

• Clearly show your face.
• Have good lighting.
• Avoid blur or shadows.
• Follow the requested background and size specifications.

Documents for Children

Children who require a pre-arranged visa may need their own application and travel documents.

Depending on the application, additional documents can include:

• Child’s passport copy
• Photograph
• Birth certificate
• Parent or guardian passport details
• Supporting parental documentation

Requirements can vary according to the child’s age and travel circumstances.

Visa Approval Is Subject to Immigration

A visa application is not automatically approved because the documents have been submitted or the service fee has been paid. The final decision remains with the relevant UAE immigration authority.

Processing Time

Standard processing through thedubaivisitvisa.com is generally estimated at approximately 3–4 working days for eligible standard tourist visa applications. Additional verification, incomplete documentation or further information requests can increase the processing period.

Dubai Visa Fee and Refund Conditions

Application and service charges are subject to the applicable booking and cancellation conditions. Applicants should understand the refund terms before submitting their application.

Additional Documents May Be Required

Immigration or the processing channel can request additional documentation even after the original checklist has been submitted.

Security Deposit

A security deposit of AED 1,500 applies to the 60-day Dubai visa under the applicable service policy. Applicants should consider this amount in addition to the visa fee when choosing the 60-day visa option.
