The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has come under criticism in view of the American tariff war. This Gulf country has made major changes in its visa policy. The UAE has temporarily suspended travel and work visa for citizens of nine African and Asian countries. Significantly, two neighboring countries of India are also included in this list. This rule has come into force with immediate effect.
According to media reports, the UAE has taken this decision due to security, health and migration concerns. As a result, citizens of these countries will no longer be able to apply for visa.
Ban on citizens of these countries
Citizens of Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen, Somalia, Lebanon, Bangladesh, Cameron, Sudan and Uganda have been banned. Citizens of these countries will no longer be able to apply for UAE tourist visa or work permit. This ban will remain in force till next notice. No time limit for review or cancellation has been announced. However, this ban will not apply to people who have already received a visa. Such individuals can legally reside and work in the country.
Why was a visa ban imposed?
According to media reports, the UAE government has not yet released any detailed information on the matter, but experts say there are many reasons behind this ban. The most common reason is national security. UAE has already implemented similar measures in response to these concerns.
