Student Visa in Dubai


For enrollment in primary, secondary or high schools, a residence visa is required. On the other hand, student visas are provided by all colleges and universities and also some training institutes.

Some institutions require all admission procedures and fees to be paid before visa can be issued. Visa issuance procedure usually takes 10 to 30 days.

The administrative expense for a student visa is AED 1,500/- for a validity of 3 years. This amount is paid at the time of registration. However, some institutions include this administrative expense in their tuition fees.

  • Family Sponsored Dubai Student Visa
    Students attending an educational institution may be permitted to apply for their UAE visa application based on the sponsorship of their parents. This option is open to full-time students. Sons must be under the age of 18, while unmarried daughters can be of any age. 

  • Educator Sponsored Dubai Study Visa
