What catches people out
- UAE visa photos are commonly 43 x 55 mm, another size used almost nowhere else.
- Plain white background is required, not off-white.
- Requirements vary between visa categories; confirm with the issuing authority.
Requirements are set by Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship and they change. Confirm the current rules with them before printing — this page is a reference, not an approval.
