Dubai visa for Sweden passport holders

Sweden passport holders can apply for a Dubai visa through White Sky Travel and receive a 30 or 60 day tourist visa, single or multiple entry, typically within one to three working days. The 30 day visa starts at AED 450, four documents are enough for most applicants, and we handle every step on WhatsApp. Here is everything a Sweden traveller needs to know: cost, paperwork, timing, validity and what happens when the visa is about to expire.

Quick answer: a Dubai visa for a Sweden 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 Sweden passport holders need a Dubai visa?

The majority of passports require a visa arranged in advance, which is the service described on this page. Certain passports qualify for visa on arrival, and eligibility rules shift from year to year. To be certain about the current rule for Sweden citizens, WhatsApp us your passport page and we will check it at no cost.

How much does a Dubai visa cost for Sweden citizens?

Here is the September 2026 price list for Sweden passport holders:

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

The 30 day visa is the shortest tourist option the UAE offers. Should immigration refuse the application, the fee is not returned, as it covers government processing.

Security deposits explained

For a limited set of countries a refundable deposit is requested. It is separate from the visa price above, it is refunded after the visitor exits the UAE, and we will confirm on WhatsApp whether it applies to Sweden passports and how much it is.

Payment options

If you live in the UAE and are sponsoring a relative or friend holding a Sweden 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. Applicants who are not UAE residents pay through a secure online link.

What Sweden citizens need to send us

WhatsApp us the following and expect an eligibility answer within about 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. One colour passport photo on a plain white background.
3. A two way air ticket. If you have not booked flights yet, we can book them for you.
4. If the applicant is a minor, a birth certificate. Certain passports additionally need a national ID card copy.

A bank statement covering six months is required for certain passports. Where Sweden citizens are affected, the statement of a family member living in the UAE is accepted. UAE immigration may also ask arriving travellers to show proof of funds on entry, so carry a card or cash that demonstrates you can support your stay.

Applying through a family member or friend in the UAE

When a UAE resident applies on behalf of a Sweden visitor, we also need the sponsor’s passport copy valid for six months, residence visa page valid for six months, Emirates ID front and back, and the guarantee form completed at applyvisa.app. If a statement is requested, a UAE family member may supply it on the applicant’s behalf, but a friend’s statement is not accepted.

Getting your Dubai visa in four steps

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. Settle the fee by secure link or instalments. Submission to immigration follows verification and payment.
3. We lodge the application and track it. Approval for Sweden passports usually takes 24 to 72 hours; immigration can sometimes extend this or ask for more paperwork.
4. You receive the approved visa as a PDF on WhatsApp. Print a copy or keep it on your phone and present it with your passport at check in and on arrival.

Validity, entry and stay rules for Sweden visitors

The permit is valid for entry for 60 days from issue. Your 30 or 60 days of stay begin on the day you enter, not on the day the visa is issued. 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. Working on a tourist visa is not allowed.

Why the expiry date matters

Visitors do not receive any grace days after the expiry date. Every day beyond expiry costs AED 50, whichever emirate issued the visa, starting immediately. Overstays beyond 30 days additionally require an exit permit of roughly AED 250 to 300. A WhatsApp reminder from us before expiry helps Sweden visitors avoid fines.

Extending a Dubai visa for Sweden 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. Once you reach the maximum, you must exit and re enter, either through an airport to airport visa change or by bus to Oman. Extensions are only accepted before expiry, so message us while you still have a week or more left.

An alternative issued through Sharjah

An alternative is the 60 day single entry visa issued through Sharjah, priced at AED 1,200 without any deposit. Holders may move freely across all seven emirates. We will advise on WhatsApp whether this suits Sweden citizens better than the standard visa.

Mistakes Sweden 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.
• Earlier violations or uncancelled visas. Be open with us so we can check the record first.
• Passports bearing a single name, which require a supporting document before we can apply.
• Booking flights before the visa is approved without allowing enough processing time.

Questions Sweden travellers ask us

What is the processing time?

Typically 24 to 72 hours. Immigration sets the timeline and may ask for more documents, so allow three working days or more before your flight.

How much is a 30 day Dubai visa for Sweden citizens?

The 30 day visa is AED 450 single entry or AED 800 multiple entry, with Indian and Filipino passports at AED 400 and AED 750. Some nationalities may also need a refundable deposit.

What does the 60 day visa cost?

The 60 day visa costs AED 650 single entry or AED 1,000 multiple entry, and AED 600 or AED 950 for Indian and Filipino passports.

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 Sweden passports.

Can I extend a Dubai visa without leaving the UAE?

Yes. A 30 day visa can be extended three times and a 60 day visa twice, each by 30 days, up to a total stay of 120 days, without exiting. After that you must leave and re enter through an airport to airport change or by bus. Applications must be made before expiry.

Are there any grace days?

None. The AED 50 daily fine starts the day after the visa expires, with an exit permit of around AED 250 to 300 added after 30 days of overstay.

Is the visa fee refundable if my application is rejected?

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.

What about children on Sweden passports?

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

Can I look for a job on this visa?

Employment is not allowed on a tourist visa. Job seekers can meet employers, but a work permit and residence visa are required before starting work.
