Dubai visa for Romania passport holders

If you hold a Romania passport and need a Dubai visa, we can issue a 30 day or 60 day UAE tourist visa in single or multiple entry, usually within 24 to 72 hours. Prices start at AED 450, you need only four documents, and everything happens over WhatsApp from our office in Dubai Investment Park. Here is everything a Romania traveller needs to know: cost, paperwork, timing, validity and what happens when the visa is about to expire.

The essentials for Romania citizens: 30 day single entry AED 450, 60 day single entry AED 650, 30 day multiple entry AED 800, 60 day multiple entry AED 1,000. Expect a 24 to 72 hour turnaround and a 60 day window to enter after issue.

Do Romania passport holders need a Dubai visa?

A prearranged visa is the standard route for most travellers, and it is the product we issue for Romania passports. Certain passports qualify for visa on arrival, and eligibility rules shift from year to year. Message us a photo of your Romania passport on WhatsApp and we will confirm which rule applies before any payment is taken.

How much does a Dubai visa cost for Romania citizens?

These are our current prices for a Dubai visa on a Romania passport, checked in September 2026:

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

Thirty days is the minimum tourist visa length, and nothing shorter exists in this category. Should immigration refuse the application, the fee is not returned, as it covers government processing.

Refundable security deposit for some nationalities

Certain nationalities may need to place a refundable security deposit. It is not part of the prices listed, it comes back to you after your exit from the country, and we state clearly on WhatsApp whether a Romania passport is affected.

Payment options

For UAE residents applying on behalf of Romania family or friends, payment can be spread with Tabby up to 12 months, Tamara on extendable terms, or a UAE credit card over 3, 6, 9 or 12 months according to the bank. All other applicants receive a secure online payment link.

What Romania citizens need to send us

WhatsApp us the following and expect an eligibility answer within about an hour:

1. Passport scan showing the front page and the back cover, valid for at least six months. A missing back cover is the most common reason an application is returned, so please include both.
2. A colour passport size photo on a white background, without glasses.
3. A return or two way flight ticket; if you do not have one, we can arrange the flights.
4. Birth certificate for any child applicant. A national ID copy is required for some nationalities.

A bank statement covering six months is required for certain passports. Where Romania citizens are affected, the statement of a family member living in the UAE is accepted. Bear in mind that immigration officers sometimes ask arriving passengers to show they can fund their stay, so keep a card or cash accessible.

If a UAE resident is sponsoring you

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. A family member’s UAE bank statement can replace the visitor’s statement if one is required, though friends cannot substitute theirs.

The application process step by step

1. WhatsApp your documents to +971 52 292 1011 or +971 4 220 2133. We review them within hours and recommend the right visa for your trip.
2. Pay through the secure link or instalment plan we send. Processing starts only after documents are verified and payment is received.
3. The application is filed and monitored by our team. Expect 24 to 72 hours for most Romania applicants, with occasional delays or extra document requests from immigration.
4. The approved visa arrives as a PDF on WhatsApp. Carry a printed or digital copy for the airline and for immigration on arrival.

Validity, entry and stay rules for Romania visitors

You have 60 days from the issue date to enter the UAE. Your permitted stay runs from the entry stamp, not from the issue date. Choose single entry for a straightforward visit, or multiple entry if you plan to hop to Oman, Saudi Arabia or Qatar and come back. Employment is not permitted on a tourist visa.

Overstay rules in 2026

UAE visit and tourist visas have no grace period after expiry. Every day beyond expiry costs AED 50, whichever emirate issued the visa, starting immediately. Anyone who overstays by more than 30 days also needs an exit permit, typically AED 250 to 300, before leaving. Our team messages Romania visitors on WhatsApp ahead of expiry so there is time to extend or leave.

Extending a Dubai visa for Romania passport holders

A 30 day visa can be extended three times for 30 days each, and a 60 day visa twice for 30 days each, with no exit required. Total time in the UAE cannot exceed 120 days. After the limit, the only way to stay on is to leave and come back on a new visa, by air through an airport to airport change or by bus via Oman. Apply for the extension ahead of the expiry date, ideally a week before.

Sharjah visa option

For Romania 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. Ask us on WhatsApp which option is better for a Romania passport.

Mistakes Romania applicants should avoid

• Back cover not sent. It is the most common omission, so attach it from the start.
• A passport expiring within six months of travel.
• Low resolution photos of documents, which immigration may reject.
• Previous overstays, unpaid fines or improperly cancelled visas. Tell us about any past UAE history so we can advise honestly before you pay.
• Passports bearing a single name, which require a supporting document before we can apply.
• Applying too close to the travel date. Allow at least three working days, more during Eid and December.
