Dubai has significantly expanded its free visa policy in an effort to boost its tourism industry. The new policy permits visa-free entry for citizens from 82 countries, including major markets such as the Schengen nations, the USA, Canada, the UK, and Thailand. This change reflects Dubai’s strategic initiative to attract more international tourists, as the city continues to emerge as a popular global travel destination. The updated visa regulations are expected to increase visitor numbers from these regions, supporting investment, tourism revenue, and the wider local economy.
