Mission Visa in the UAE
A Mission Visa is designed for professionals working on short-term projects with companies in the UAE.
This visa allows individuals from other countries to enter the UAE specifically for these temporary assignments. Initially, the UAE company applies for a quota to obtain this visa for a particular role. After the company secures the quota, the worker, who must be located outside the UAE, submits required documents, including their passport. Once the application is processed and approved, the company sends the visa to the worker, who can then travel to the UAE and commence work on their designated project. A Labor Card is also required to ensure legal employment in the country. If the worker needs to return for another project, they must apply for a new Mission Visa.
