sponsor for family members
insänt av Shaun Tenner i Dubai forum
hi carl,
a friend of mine is going through some trouble with that right now. apparently they did some changing to the visa requirements (again), so that its no longer possible to be a sponsor for your family when they come to visit. they always try to restrict the number of foreigners coming in as it's that popular. however, there is a way.
this is what i found on gulfnews:Residents can apply for a visa for their spouse or blood relative. Expatriates will not be allowed to sponsor friends. And sponsoring other blood relatives will require approval of a senior officer.
might be best for you to check with the embassy - they should know....
enjoy your time in dubai!
