UAE Updates Eligibility Requirements for Single-Entry Jobseeker Visit Visas

The UAE government has issued updated rules and documentation criteria for foreigners seeking a jobseeker visit visa without a domestic sponsor. Eligible applicants can secure a single-entry visa for 60, 90, or 120 days based on professional skill tiers or graduation from a top 500 global university. The visa does not grant the right to work, requiring a separate permit once employment is secured.
