UAE family visa Case

Hello everyone. I need some advice with my situation.

I had applied for family visa for my spouse against which a entry permit has been granted. My wife will soon be entering UAE. But the situation has changed for me now as I would be leaving UAE in the next 2 months. The question is, is it mandatory for my wife now to get insurance and apply for Emirates ID ? What if we do not initiate the process? Will she be able to leave Abu Dhabi with me with the entry permit?

Can someone please help?

Abu Dhabi Transit Visa rejected without reason

Hi,

I am traveling from Germany to Pakistan via Etihad Airways with 56 hours layover in Abu Dhabi. I applied for the 96 hour transit visa via Etihad Visaonline portal, I uploaded all the documents asked in the application, still admin asked me to also upload my German residence permit and add my father’s name in my full name. I did that and my application was submitted. After 6 mins I received a status email saying my transit visa application was “rejected from the auditor.” No reason was provided. I called Etihad helpline and they sent an email to Visa office asking for the rejection reason and told me to call the next day. I called the next day and they told me they had not received a reply from the Visa office and could not do anything about it and told me to contact the UAE Visa office. I contacted the UAE Visa office and the representative told me the application was rejected without giving any reason, and nothing could be done.

I filled in all the information, attached return ticket, confirmed hotel booking, passport, national ID card, German residence permit. I am frustrated as this does not make sense to me.

Could anybody please help me how to navigate this situation?

Thanks a lot in advance!

How to Obtain an Equivalency Letter for UAEU as an International Student?

Hey everyone!

I recently applied to UAEU as an international student and need an equivalency letter to verify my high school qualifications. I completed my A Levels in Saudi Arabia, scoring a 97% on my high school report card with 3 A*s in Computer Science, Physics, and Math.

I’d appreciate any advice or guidance from others who’ve gone through the equivalency process in the UAE!

  • What documents are needed?
  • How long does it usually take to get the letter?
  • Any tips for dealing with UAE’s Ministry of Education or related authorities?

Job Search - where’s the light?

Ahhh, I’m honestly so tired of this. The good part? I actually got feedback, which is rare. But I keep making it to the final stages, only to hear I’m ‘not the right fit.’ Somehow, I’m never quite ‘it,’ and it’s draining.

Anyone else stuck in this cycle? How do you handle it?

About me: I’ve got 3+ years of experience in Project Management, HR, and Operations roles, with skills in team coordination, stakeholder engagement, and vendor management. Looking for a positive, growth-oriented work environment in the UAE.

Any leads or advice would be hugely appreciated! Thanks :)

Education: Bachelors In Business Administration. Tools: Microsoft Office, Agile, & Jira.

Sheikh Zayed mosque

Hello,

We are visiting Sheikh Zayed mosque today and have some Shia worshipers to. I was just wondering if they'll have any problem praying there? Or is it best to avoid.

Don't want to cause any problems.

People with no car whose job is in Yas island, how do you manage the commute?

I recently got a job in Yas island and it's nearly impossible to catch a spot in the bus (bus 102) during the early hours as it's already full by the time it would reach my stop. I even tried catching it from an earlier stop because I thought it would be less full but nope. Taxi everyday isn't an option since it takes ~70 dirhams one way so I was wondering if there are other ways people with no cars make the commute.

Best Fishing Spots in Abu Dhabi? (Preferably near Khalifa City)

Hey folks! 👋

Looking to spend some weekends fishing around Abu Dhabi, ideally somewhere close to Khalifa City. I’m kinda new to fishing in the area, so I’d love any tips on good spots where I could get started (and hopefully catch something decent 😅). Not too picky on what I catch—just looking for some nice, chill places to cast a line and relax.

Any favorite spots, tips on what gear to bring, or advice on rules I should know about? Thanks in advance for any help! 🎣
