Question
What is a visa for a newborn baby in the UAE?
Answer
A visa for a newborn is a special type of residence visa that allows your child to legally stay in the country. It is important to submit the application within 120 days of birth, otherwise fines will accrue for each day of delay.
How to apply for a newborn visa
The application process includes:
- Gathering all necessary documents.
- Submitting the application via an online portal or at an authorized center.
- Paying all fees.
- Receiving confirmation and the visa.
Required Documents
To obtain a visa, you will need:
- The baby’s birth certificate (attested).
- The child’s passport.
- A photo of the child on a white or gray background.
- Parents’ passports and visas.
- Copy of the employment contract or proof of income (minimum 4000 AED per month).
- Rental contract or utility bill (if residing in Dubai).
Common mistakes when applying for a newborn visa UAE
- Delaying the application – many parents fail to submit documents within 120 days of birth, resulting in fines.
- Incorrect birth certificate processing – attestation and translation of documents are often missed.
- Lack of proof of income or residence – without income confirmation (minimum 4000 AED) or proof of accommodation, the application may be rejected.
- Submitting an incomplete document package – missing the child’s photo or parents’ passports delays the process.
- Ignoring UAE exit rules – a newborn without a visa cannot leave the country, which often surprises parents.
- Not considering visa validity periods – fines apply if the visa is not renewed on time.
