You need not wait for desktop access to apply for an Emirati e-visa. VFS Global’s new app lets you tick off this procedure anywhere, anytime, using only your smartphone.
The new DVPC (Dubai Visa Processing Centre) app lets Emirates flyers create a profile, upload documents and make payments towards a UAE visa. You can apply for a 96hr, 30-day or 90-day single-entry visa, at least four international working days ahead of your flight departure. However, if it’s a last-minute trip, you can use the Express visa service, but you still need to ensure you’re booking minimum two days prior.
The app also:
- Allows you to track your application, using your visa-application number and your Emirates booking reference number
- Stores your application history
- Helps you with Google Maps directions to the nearest visa-application centre in your city (in case you prefer the offline way)
- Lets you check for your visa eligibility (as per country)
