Atlys, a digital visa application platform that promises to make travel hassle free, has announced its official launch in the UAE.
The company’s mission is to make visa processing as simple and stress-free as booking a flight, announces its press release.
Founded in 2021, Atlys has offices in three continents, and processed over 1.2 million visas for travellers heading to more than 100 countries.
Why the UAE?
After expanding its footprint in India and the US, the three-year old startup is setting up base in the UAE, with an eye on capitalising on the country’s travel hub status. With 92 per cent of the UAE’s population consisting of expatriates, many of whom face visa challenges when travelling, the UAE provides the perfect environment for Atlys’ innovative solution, as per the company’s press release.
Although UAE nationals enjoy a strong passport, most expats do not, making Atlys’ services invaluable in this market, it adds.
