good morning, does it make any sense booking Turkish airlines from Lagos to Istanbul, Istanbul to Doha Qatar , Qatar to Dubai , final destination is Dubai, but wanna see a friend Doha, is it sensible ?

You trip might be unrealistic. And stressful cos you can't fly directly from Doha to Dubai. You have to go through Turkey that's if on Turkish Airlines.
But if you have the time and money, why not

Your employer can do it without you leaving the UAE. Unless they don't want to bear the cost.

Imagine! Na so dem dey do for this side ni? Barely after a week of issuance from the embassy.... #Ruthlessness

Yea. sometimes as a result of conflict between Client , agent 1 , agent 2 , agent 3 and sponsor.

Cos some people would receive the visa from the Agent or the Sponsor and refuse to complete payment.

mutico20:
is it possible for dem to cancelled after biometric?

Yes.

nickeyking:
This my friend is in MM airport Lagos and the said his visa has been cance, house help me out what's the problem

Contact your agent.

DAT is y I am asking,because d info I hea is different fro dis oo

clinton21:
Boss did you confirm this very well

Kindly share the information you heard.

clinton21:


I really want to be sure so that someone will not be misled. The house need to know the visa date that count, if it's the temporary visa or the stamped one on the passport

They would Put a new date on your visa. and not the Validity of the Approved copy from UAE. but you have to undergo your biometrics before the end of the validity on the approval copy.

teekay213:
Hello!

How much does one need in an account before you can apply Dubai visa or do they ask for statement of account?

You don't need any bank statement.
but make sure you are financially capable before embarking on your UAE Journey.

mutico20:

Hello please help me oo I was given an appointment at uae embassy in Abuja to come for biometric on July 3,and my visa will expire on July 6,my question now is..*will i receive my original visa on that same day,if yes" how can I meet up with my flight because am living in Ogun state. am scare now please help.

Don't worry about that, when they Issue you the visa, the validity would start counting from the day you did the biometric at the embassy. so u have 60 days to enter after The July 3rd. so don't be in a rush. take your time and prepare well for this trip.

giftdavid112:
okay, I was asking if you know how long it will take to get the visa?. Thanks

you can get it in less than 24hours

giftdavid112:


Thanks chief. Just two more questions:

1. What is an on boarding visa?
2. Is that different from a tourist visa?

How long do you think any of them will take?

1 & 2. Its just a regular 14/30 days visa but preferable from your employer .

giftdavid112:

Thanks Chief. I verified its authenticity. Had 4 interviews, spoke with people at the company, verified company email addresses. Even went on LinkedIn to stalk people working there, I can't be too careful. I applied directly from the company website, Its a billion dollar plus company, so I did my homework on it. PS: I never use agents.

Its a 23,000 monthly salary, $4000 relocation allowance and a $800 development allowance with some other benefits package.

Is it possible to do Dubai visa stuff from Lagos? Lastly, if i am earning 23k, how much can a gentleman be saving in Dubai? I am boring, so i dont party or do girls. I heard there is no federal tax? Thanks

1. You can only do the visa from Abuja at the moment. (if you feel its stressful, you can ask your firm to get you an onboarding visa. which you can travel with and do the rest in UAE without going to Abuja)

2. 23k AED is like 2.2m NGN so its cool and u can save at least 1.5m monthly after paying your house rent and car rental/loan if applicable.

3. No federal taxes, only 5% VAT.

giftdavid112:
Hello guys, I already got a job in Dubai from Nigeria. They pay 23,000 AED. Have signed all the docs with HR. But now, I have some questions:

1. Is that enough money to leave well in Dubai? Nigerian perspective
2. They are helping to work out visa stuff against my start date. Will it be possible to get my UAE visa here in Lagos. I guess this is a dumb question, just wanted to ask about the possibilities cause it will stressful for me visiting abuja.
3. They are offering a $4000 relocation allowance. Can this get me a good house for a year?

I am currently in a dilemma now. I applied for the job in Dubai and one in america. Although I would prefer to immigrate to america, the company haven't given me an offer yet. I am just scared I would start working in Dubai for a few weeks and then get the offer. It will be a dick move to leave in that fashion.

You need to confirm if this Job is authentic as such huge promises are scams unless u had a real online interview from your employer.
23k AED is a very good pay.
$4000 relocation allowance makes it look like a scam. cos all should have been in AED. but the 4k USD wouldnt be able to pay your rent for 1year. unless u want to reside in Ajman.
but with salary of 23k AED you can live a very good life here.

PLEASE VERIFY YOUR CONTRACT AND THE EMPLOYER OR AGENT

0ubenji:
My pal in Dubai just sent me a voice note, please be careful if u wanna do visa change in Dubai now. You'll be routed to oman as a ruse and most likely forced to go back home from there. Tactics to reduce the naija population in UAE.
Just decided to share to whoever it may be of help to.

Don't be misguided.

That's not a Tactic as 90days visas for Nigerians now can only be accessed from Abuja and not via the usual e-visa, hence u need to go get the visa sticker from Abuja.
I believe its the Agents that misguides people and not the UAE government trying do reduce the population.

tolanibae:
I just went to go and read the previous pages of this threads and am almost regretting this step am about to take.

With all the money that has been spent, to be spent, biometric, 30k abi na 70k to bribe for quick processing, document attestation, all those waiting working days, BTA, money for accommodation,

Then to now get there and be stuffed in a room with 13 other people,bug infested bed, mad sun, not even sure of getting job.

Please, is this worth it?

Knowledge is power and no knowledge is lost. we advise people to go through the thread before making decisions.

Your story and experiences would be different from those you read cos all fingers are not equal and i guess u dont want to be the shortest.

There are many people living the better life here and have no reason even visiting Nigeria.

Dont worrry, when u start standing inbetween towers and looking up the sky, you would know you made the right decision and would love to be successful here.

Meanwhle how did yu come to the conclusion that u would be stuffed in a room of 13ppl with bug infested bed?

Otubio:


If you arrive a day before your visa expires, you will be sent back. I think the requirement is that your duration of stay does not exceed your visa expiration. Of course you can then delay your travel once you've been admited in. The point is that they will only allow you in if you are staying for "one" day if your visa expires in one day and this is unlikely. The POE officer won't stamp you in for anything over one day. If your visa is close to expiring, renew it before traveling.

Sorry to say this, you are not entirely right also, cos i have a friend that traveled 1month to the expiry of his B1/B2 Visa and was still stamped in for 6months.

Someone on the last page said she was stamped for the duration of her visa which was less than 6months.

So i believe it depends on the CBP Officer you approach. i also know someone that was stamped for 14days. maybe cos he said he was staying just 7 days.

So if anyone has an unadultrated story at the POE, He/She wouldn't have any problems with CBP. like the person planning to spend 4-5months on vacation might claim she wants to stay just 2weeks and gets 30days stamped in unluckily. but these are rare ocassions. the big Bosses here knows better.

hello every one, I am new here I have gone through the post but I still don't understand..
I am Emmanuel by name currently serving (Nysc) Here in cross river calabar at the office of the state accountant general calabar, I want to travel out....
pls what are the procedure?
my current certificate is HND accountancy..
age 27.. and I will be through with Nysc next month June5.... thanks

The best thing u could do for urself is reading the thread atleast page 0 - the present of Part 3. and it would give u the foundation of what u need and what to expect.

@mariamadenle


They are fair to u. making 450 aed is easy. depending on the period and where you go hunting for passengers . one Nairalander here, his target is 1000 aed daily and he makes it. so u need to confirm if the job is genuine. then the rest will fall in place. not forgeting u have to pass the driving test when u come to UAE unless u r on ur own.
