Dubai visa for Moldova citizens: price, documents and process

Travellers from Moldova who need a Dubai visa can get a 30 or 60 day UAE tourist visa from us in single or multiple entry, and the approval normally takes between 24 and 72 hours. Fees begin at AED 450, the document list is short, and the whole application runs on WhatsApp with our team in Dubai. This page explains what a Moldova passport holder pays, what to send, how long it takes, and how the visa can be extended once you are in the UAE.

Quick answer: a Dubai visa for a Moldova passport costs AED 450 for 30 days single entry, AED 650 for 60 days single entry, AED 800 for 30 days multiple entry and AED 1,000 for 60 days multiple entry. Processing takes 24 to 72 hours and the visa must be used to enter the UAE within 60 days of issue.

Do Moldova passport holders need a Dubai visa?

Most nationalities need a prearranged visa before flying to the UAE, and that is what we issue. A shorter list of nationalities can enter with a stamp on arrival, and that list moves occasionally. We confirm the current position for Moldova passports on WhatsApp so that nobody pays for a visa they do not need.

Moldova passport Dubai visa fees

Our rate card for Moldova passports, confirmed in September 2026, is as follows:

• Single entry 30 day visa: AED 450
• 60 day tourist visa, single entry: AED 650
• 30 days, multiple entry: AED 800
• 60 day tourist visa, multiple entry: AED 1,000

The shortest UAE tourist visa is 30 days; there is no shorter tourist visa. Should immigration refuse the application, the fee is not returned, as it covers government processing.

Refundable security deposit for some nationalities

For a limited set of countries a refundable deposit is requested. This is independent of the visa cost, refunded once you depart the UAE, and we tell Moldova applicants in advance whether one applies.

Payment options

If you live in the UAE and are sponsoring a relative or friend holding a Moldova passport, the fee can be paid through Tabby over up to 12 months, Tamara on extendable terms, or a UAE credit card in 3, 6, 9 or 12 monthly instalments subject to your bank. Other travellers pay by a secure online payment link that we send on WhatsApp.

Dubai visa requirements for Moldova passport holders

Message us these items on WhatsApp and we will normally confirm your eligibility within an hour:

1. Your passport data page plus a photo of the back cover, with six months or more validity. We ask for both because the back cover is the item most often forgotten.
2. A colour passport size photo on a white background, without glasses.
3. Confirmed two way flight booking. We can book the flights on your behalf if needed.
4. A birth certificate for children under 18. Some nationalities must also provide a national ID copy.

Some nationalities may be asked for a six month bank statement, and where that applies to a Moldova passport a UAE based family member’s statement can be submitted on your behalf. On arrival, immigration may request evidence of funds, so have a bank card or cash to hand.

Sponsor requirements

Sponsors based in the UAE send their passport and residence visa copies with six months validity, front and back of the Emirates ID, and complete the guarantee form at applyvisa.app. Where a bank statement is needed, a family sponsor’s statement may be used instead of the applicant’s; this does not extend to friends.

The application process step by step

1. Send your documents on WhatsApp to +971 52 292 1011 or +971 4 220 2133. We check them the same day and tell you which visa suits your travel dates.
2. Complete payment through the link or instalment option we provide. We submit the application once documents and payment are in place.
3. We lodge the application and track it. Approval for Moldova passports usually takes 24 to 72 hours; immigration can sometimes extend this or ask for more paperwork.
4. Once approved, we send the visa PDF on WhatsApp. Show it at check in and at UAE immigration together with your passport.

How long the Dubai visa is valid

The permit is valid for entry for 60 days from issue. The stay period, 30 or 60 days, starts counting from your arrival date. A single entry visa allows one arrival; a multiple entry visa lets you leave and re enter as often as you like within the validity, which suits travellers combining the UAE with Oman, Saudi Arabia or Qatar. A tourist visa does not permit employment in the UAE.

What happens if you overstay

Once a visit visa expires, no extra days are granted. A fine of AED 50 applies for every day of overstay, the same flat rate across all visa types and emirates, and it starts the day after expiry. Anyone who overstays by more than 30 days also needs an exit permit, typically AED 250 to 300, before leaving. We send Moldova clients a reminder on WhatsApp before the visa expires so that you can extend or exit in time.

Staying longer than 30 or 60 days

The 30 day visa allows three extensions of 30 days and the 60 day visa allows two, without leaving the country. The maximum total stay is 120 days. When the extensions are used up, Moldova visitors must exit and return on a fresh visa, either by a same day flight or by the Oman bus route. Extensions are only accepted before expiry, so message us while you still have a week or more left.

Sharjah visa option

For Moldova travellers who prefer it, the Sharjah 60 day single entry visa costs AED 1,200 and carries no deposit. It works for the entire country, including Dubai. We can tell you on WhatsApp which of the two is the better fit for Moldova applicants.

Why applications get held up

• No back cover scan. Send it together with the front page.
• Passport validity under six months. Renew before applying.
• Unclear document images. A clean, well lit scan avoids delays.
• Past visa problems in the UAE. We assess these before submission so that you are not surprised by a refusal.
• A passport with a single name and no document showing a full name, which immigration cannot process.
• Tight timelines. Three working days is the minimum, and peak seasons need more.

Frequently asked questions about Dubai visa for Moldova passport

How many days until approval?

Expect 24 to 72 hours for a Moldova passport. Immigration controls the timing and occasionally requests extra paperwork.

Price of a 30 day single entry visa?

AED 450 for single entry and AED 800 for multiple entry. Indian and Filipino passports pay AED 400 and AED 750. A refundable deposit may apply for some nationalities and is confirmed on WhatsApp.

60 day visa fee for Moldova citizens?

AED 650 single or AED 1,000 multiple entry, with the Indian and Filipino tariff at AED 600 and AED 950.

Will immigration ask for proof of funds?

It depends on nationality. Some passports are asked for a six month statement, and a UAE based family member can submit theirs instead. Immigration may also ask arriving travellers for proof of funds, so carry a card or cash. Message us on WhatsApp and we will confirm the rule for Moldova passports.

Can the visa be extended?

Yes, without exit. Three extensions on a 30 day visa, two on a 60 day visa, 30 days each, capped at 120 days total. Beyond that, an exit and re entry is required. Apply before the visa expires.

What happens if I overstay by a day?

There is no grace period. Fines of AED 50 per day begin immediately after expiry, and an exit permit costing roughly AED 250 to 300 is needed if the overstay exceeds 30 days.

Can I get my money back on refusal?

Fees are not refunded on rejection, as the government charge is paid when the application is lodged. A fresh application can be made once the issue is resolved.

Can I add my child to the application?

Yes. Minors receive their own visa at the adult price, and we ask for a birth certificate with the usual documents.

Can I work in the UAE on a Dubai visa?

No. The visa is for visiting only. Taking up work requires an employment visa arranged by a UAE employer.
